# Reef Pipe

{% hint style="info" %}
The following steps outline the assembly of the Reef Pipe using U-Bolts. Teams can also weld the pipes together for added strength and durability.
{% endhint %}

## Step 1

Insert the U-Bolt into the Short Reef Pipe and place at the correct height. Tighten nuts on U-bolt until the Short Reef Pipe can no longer twist left/right or slide up/down.

{% hint style="info" %}
The backing plate of the U-bolt will be deformed when the nuts are fully tightened.
{% endhint %}
