Products are protected by multiple U.S. and foreign patents. Visit the website at www.S-5.com for
complete information on patents and trademarks. For maximum holding strength, setscrews should
be tensioned and re-tensioned as the seam material compresses. Clamp setscrew tension should be
verified using a calibrated torque wrench between 160 and 180 inch pounds when used on 22ga steel,
and between 130 and 150 inch pounds for all other metals and thinner gauges of steel. Consult the S-5!
website at www.S-5.com for published data regarding holding strength.

The S-5-PV Kit is furnished with the hardware shown at
right, excluding the attachment clamp, which is supplied
separately. Additional nuts will need to be ordered for
use on end applications. The S-5-PV Kit is compatible with
most common metal roofing materials, including brass.
Providing flexibility, S-5! offers one kit to accommodate all
PV frame thicknesses from 1.3" (33 mm) to 2.5" (64 mm).
The embossed panel guide makes the module placement
easier. The mounting disk is multi-directional and rails
are not required. Flat mounting disks are available for
use with the S-5! VersaBracket
™
for exposed-fastened
trapezoidal profiles.
Four strategically placed under-disk hooks assist in wire
management. The PV grab ears that hold the solar panel
in place are broader to allow for ease of installation and
precise module engagement.
The S-5-PV Kit fits the majority of solar panels on the
market. Using the S-5! mini clamps, it also fits the majority
of metal roofs on the market, including exposed-fastened
and corrugated. It is designed to universally fit both field
(two adjacent panels) and end conditions.
Wind dynamics are complex, thus, each system should
be reviewed by a qualified licensed professional who
understands wind effects on metal roof design and
construction prior to purchase and installation. For more
detailed information including specifications, installation
instructions and CAD drawings, visit www.S-5.com or
your S-5-PV Kit distributor.
The S-5-PV Kit continues to be the easiest, most cost-
effective way to install solar panels directly to standing
seam metal roofs, remaining the most popular choice
worldwide.
Patents pending.
Due to the variety of attachment needs, S-5-PV
Kits are sold separately from S-5! mini clamps.
The S-5-PV Kit fits only S-5! mini clamps, NOT
standard clamps.
