S-5-K Grip™ Clamps

The S-5-K Grip also eliminates the large moment arm other clamps use for these profiles. Instead, it features a low mounting surface area, with the mounting bolt directly over the center of the seam. This dramatically increases the strength of the clamp, making it perfect for use with heavy-duty applications. The head of the flanged bolts control the amount of compression, which reduces the possibility of over-compressing the seam, and makes installation a snap!

S-5-K Grip Mini Clamp

The S-5-K Grip Mini is a bit shorter than the S-5-K Grip and has one base bolt 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!*

*S-5!® Mini clamps are not compatible with, and should not be used with, S-5! SnoRail™/SnoFence™ or ColorGard® snow retention systems.

Tools Page

To install the S-5-K Grip, place the clamp insert just under the fold of the rib at the desired location. Next, position the clamp by rolling it over the seam and the clamp insert piece, ensuring it is centered over the clamp insert with approximately 2 mm of insert overhang on each side of the clamp. By hand, partially thread the two flanged bolts into the base of the S-5-K Grip. The bolts should engage the divots in each end of the S-5-K Grip insert. Lastly, tighten the base bolts using a ratchet or screwgun with a 13 mm hex. For optimal holding strength, bolts should be tensioned to 20 inch pounds.

By hand, partially thread the single flanged bolt into the base of the S-5-K Grip Mini. The bolt should engage in the center of the S-5-K Grip Mini insert. Lastly, tighten the base bolt using a ratchet or screwgun with a 13 mm hex. For optimal holding strength, bolt should be tensioned to 20 inch pounds.
