I have a similar problem - McMaster 3/8 and 1/2" hot dip galvanized u-bolts regular length are too short and extended length are too long. Also, 3" tubing sizes are not stocked, only IPS sizes. However, if one goes with 1/2" rod, Portland Bolt will make whatever you want. Haven't tried it, so I don't know pricing/lead times.

DX Engineering sells the Cycle 24 muffler style (they call them economy saddle clamps), they are hot dip galvanized, and good lengths and diameters for elements to booms or booms to masts plates.

The Fastenal & Grainger lines are weak, so it would be nice to find some sources with more choice.

Hello-
   I am having trouble finding some HDG 3/8" size long-shank U-Bolts. I need ones with 
around 5" of straight 3/8" bolt, before the bend starts. Does anyone know of a 
source?
          Thanks, Byron WA5THJ
