Description
The S-5! WindClamp 2X is designed to significantly enhance the wind uplift performance of standing seam metal roof systems. This innovative clamp attaches directly to the vertical seam, locking adjacent seam panels together to prevent disengagement during high wind events. By increasing system wind resistance, the WindClamp 2X provides building owners, contractors, and engineers with a cost-effective solution for strengthening new or existing standing seam roof systems against hurricanes, tornadoes, and other extreme weather conditions. Fabricated from high-strength aluminum with stainless steel hardware, the clamp installs quickly and without roof penetration, preserving roof warranties while delivering long-term reliability.
