S-5! clamps are offered in two sizes to accommodate the holding strength needs of varying utility applications. Our standard (two-setscrew) clamps are designed specifically for heavy-duty applications, such as snow retention, and they provide documented and unsurpassed holding strength. Mini (one-setscrew) clamps save considerable cost for medium or lighter-duty applications, like satellite dish or solar panel mounting. View All S-5! Products
Our clamps are specifically designed for your exact standing seam metal roof and roof profile to maximize cost/holding strength ratios. It is important to choose the correct clamp for use on your specific roof type, gauge, and material.
Despite what others may say, a one-size-fits-all clamp compromises either cost or performance.
S-5! roof clamps are carefully designed to preserve both. This is a defining feature of our approach to metal roof attachments: Some of our clamps feature broad diversity, but we'll let you know if there is a more cost-effective solution within our product range for your specific application. Our goal is to ensure you have the best solution at the lowest cost.
S-5! invented the technology of utilizing round-point setscrews for a secure mechanical interlock, while protecting the standing seam and any sacrificial coatings, leaving roof warranties intact.
We conducted ASTM-B117 salt-fog testing to prove our clamp attachments cause no premature corrosion to the roof panels.
All clamps are designed to outlast the standing seam metal roof using prudent designs, non-corrosive materials and metallurgy.
Clamps utilize Torx setscrews – These screws are resistant to stripping, easy to drive and remove bit during installation. Driver tips are provided with each box of clamps and bits are widely available internationally.
Some clamps also feature:
Tensile load testing is vital to engineering any application and results vary widely with panel material, thickness, profile, and even brand of manufacture. That’s why we've performed 3,000+ load tests on 500+ different standing seam metal roof profiles, materials and gauges in two load directions:
No ASTM protocols for testing of metal roof seam clamps existed, so we created one back in 1992 before we offered any product for sale. All of our testing is performed in a third-party, ISO 17025 accredited laboratory.
S-5! metal roof clamps were invented by a contractor and metal roof consultant, so they are designed with the installer in mind to reduce the amount of time spent on the roof and to increase field efficiency. All of our systems can be retrofitted to existing roofs or incorporated into new roof design with common tools. The instruction and process is easy enough for a DIY’er to follow.
