Each saddle portion includes curved clamping surfaces, and a bolt hole and slot in the closed edge. An elongate threaded rod is provided which is manually bent around a pipe to form a U-bolt. The saddle elements are adjusted to fit the U-bolt, and installed with washers and nuts. The ends of the U-bolt may be trimmed after installation.
