Cant seem to find any large stainless u bolts online. We drove the poles, 3" drill stem last week. Planning to attach u bolts or some type of collar to house boat to ride up and down spud poles in water fluctuations. Any ideas where to find this?

I would say something like this, but they are made for larger than 3" pilings

I think this is what you want:

Not sure what size houseboat you are talking about but a 3" pipe for mooring seems awful small.

Thanks for all the replies. We were able to get the poles 13 feet into the mud, so hopefully will be ok.
