S-5! SolarFoot For Metal Roofing Applications

S-5!
SolarFoot
for Exposed-Fastened Roof Systems

The SolarFoot is another option from S-5 that offers an ideal mounting platform to attach the L-Foot of a rail-mounted PV system to an exposed fastener metal roof, such as trapezoidal AG-Panel or R-Panel profiles.  One option is the S-5 PV Kit on a RibBracket.  Alternatively, this option of the SolarFoot and L-Foot (sold separately) offers a lower profile, which eliminates issues like moment arm - commonly associated with L-Foot/Rail solar mounting scenarios.

NOTE: L-Foot and Fasteners SOLD SEPARATELY.

• Compatible with all commercial L-Foot products on the market
• No leaks with factory-applied 40-year isobutylene/isoprene crosslink polymer sealant
• Sealant reservoir to prevent over-compression of sealant

• Integrated with M8-1.25x17mm stud and M8-1.25 stainless steel hex flange nut included

The SolarFoot is a simple, cost-effective pedestal for L-Foot (not included) attachment of rail-mounted solar PV. The unique design is compatible with all rail producer L-Foot components. The new SolarFoot assembly ensures a durable weathertight solution for the life of the roof. Special factory applied butyl co-polymeric sealant contained in a reservoir is The Right Way, allowing a water-tested seal. Stainless integrated stud and hex flange lock-nut secure the L-Foot into position. A low center of gravity reduces the moment arm commonly associated with L-Foot attachments. Direct attachment of the SolarFoot to the structural member or deck provides unparalleled holding strength.

Solar Foot Advantages:

• Exposed fasten mounting platform for solar arrays attached via L-Foot and Rails
• Weatherproof attachment to exposed fastener roofing

• Tool: 13 mm Hex Socket or ½”
• Hex Socket
• Tool Required: Electric screw gun with hex drive socket for self tapping screws
• Low Center of Gravity reduces moment arm commonly associated with L-Foot/Rail solar mounting scenarios
• Four points of attachment - directly into the structure or deck for superior holding strength
• S-5! Recommended substrate specific e.g. steel purlin, wood 2×4, osb, etc fasteners provide excellent waterproofing and pull out strength
• Fastener through-hole locations comply with NDS (National Design Specification)
