S-5-E Clamp

S-5!™ clamps attach to the panel seam by the tightening of two "bullet-nosed" stainless steel setscrews against the seam material. (This is usually done with an industrial grade screwgun.) The round point setscrews compress the seam material against the opposite wall of the clamp. They will "dimple" the seam material, but will not penetrate it. Threaded holes in the clamp (stainless hardware is provided) enable the easy attachment of various ancillary items to the clamps.

The S-5-E clamp is designed specially for double-folded standing seam roof profiles having the appropriate dimensioning. This clamp is also the one recommended for Butler’s MR24™. Although a bit smaller and less expensive than the S-5-U,  for these profiles, the S-5-E is just as strong. The S-5-E is perfect for S-5!™ snow retention products and other heavy-duty applications.

For horizontal seams under .5" crimp the seam to 180 degrees at desired clamp location. This illustration demonstrates crimping technique, NOT actual location of clamp.

The S-5-E and S-5-E Mini clamps are each furnished with the hardware shown above. Each box also includes a bit tip for tightening setscrews using an electric screw gun.  A structural aluminum attachment clamp, the S-5-E is compatible with most common metal roofing materials excluding copper.  All included hardware is stainless steel.  Please visit www.S-5.com for more information including CAD details, metallurgical compatibilities and specifications.

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