S-5! E Mini Clamp

S-5!
S-5-E Mini Clamp
for Standing Seam Roofs

S-5! clamps can be used to attach mounting feet or rails to a standing seam roof. The S-5-E Mini is a medium-duty, non-penetrating seam clamp. It is a bit shorter than the S-5-E and has one setscrew rather than two. The Mini is the choice for attaching all kinds of rooftop accessories: signs, walkways, satellite dishes, antennas, rooftop lighting, lightning protection systems, solar arrays, exhaust stack bracing, conduit, condensate lines, mechanical equipment-just about anything! The S-5! clamps attach to the panel seam by the tightening the "bullet-nosed" stainless steel setscrew against the seam material. (This is usually done with an industrial grade screwgun.) The setscrew compresses the seam material against the opposite wall of the clamp. They will "dimple" the seam material, but will not penetrate it, leaving the roof warranty intact. Threaded holes in the clamp (and stainless hardware provided) enable the easy attachment of various ancillary items to the clamps.

Installation is as simple as setting the specially patented round-point setscrews into the clamp, placing the clamp on the seam, and tightening them to the specified tension. Then, affix ancillary items using the bolt provided with the product.

The S-5-E clamps have been tested for load-to-failure results on a variety of double-folded standing seam roofs. The independent lab test data found at www.S-5.com can be used for load-critical designs and applications. S-5!® holding strength is unmatched in the industry.

Each S-5-E Mini Clamp includes:

• Structural aluminum attachment clamp
• Required hardware - one stainless steel hex flange bolt
• One setscrew

NOTE: Starting Summer 2020, S5! will begin shipping Mini Clamps WITHOUT the M8 Bolt (shown below in image), as a rolling change (this will not affect the Standard Clamp models). After stock runs out, the Minis will only ship with the clamp and set screw going forward. The Mini version is primarily used to mount solar panels. When using the solar PVKIT 2.0 in conjunction with the Mini clamps, there is no need for the bolt, and/or the supplied bolt is often not the correct length, hence the change. If needed, M8 bolts will still be available for order in 16, 20, and 40 mm lengths.
