S-5-E Clamp

The S-5! E Clamp is an economical, non-penetrating clamp specifically designed for double-folded, standing seam metal roof profiles (including MR-24 style). It uses two round-point Torx-T30 stainless steel setscrews to grip the seam without piercing it, preserving roof finishes and warranties. It includes an M8 bolt for attaching accessories. The clamp is suitable for heavy-duty attachments like solar mounts, snow guards, walkways, and other rooftop utilities where seam geometry and strength permit. A lighter Mini version is available for lighter load applications.

Key Features:

• Designed for traditional 1″ and 1.5″ double-fold standing seam roof panels
• Two stainless steel round-point T-30 setscrews for non-penetrating secure grip
• Includes an M8 bolt for mounting accessories (standard version)
• Compatible with MR-24 and similar seam styles of appropriate geometry
• Economical compared to larger clamps, while providing comparable strength in compatible profiles

• Material: Structural aluminum body; stainless steel hardware
• Setscrews: Two T-30 round-point stainless steel setscrews; bolt: one M8-1.25 × 16 mm hex flange bolt (standard version)
• Compatibility: Double-fold standing seam profiles with correct dimensions; not intended for copper roofs
• Mini version: shorter body, one setscrew, no bolt; suitable for lighter accessory loads
• Includes: Clamp body, two setscrews, M8 bolt (standard version), Torx bit tip

• Confirm the roof panel is double-fold standing seam of appropriate profile (1″ or 1.5″ seam).
• Position the E Clamp over the seam so that it fits cleanly.
• Insert both round-point T-30 setscrews and hand-tighten until clamp seats against the seam.
• Install the M8 bolt for accessory mounting as needed (standard version).
• Tighten setscrews and bolt to manufacturer’s torque specifications.
• Inspect after snow or wind loads and recheck hardware tightness periodically.

Q: What roof profiles work with the S-5! E Clamp?
A: Double-fold standing seams like MR-24 of 1″ or 1.5″ height with appropriate seam fold geometry.

Q: Does the E Clamp penetrate the roof panel?
A: No. It uses round-point setscrews that dimple the seam material instead of piercing it.

Q: What is the difference between the standard and Mini version?
A: The standard has two setscrews and includes the M8 bolt; the Mini has one setscrew and omits the bolt, for less demanding loads.

Q: Can the S-5! E Clamp be used with copper roofing?
A: No. It is not recommended for copper profiles.
