SunLock Solar Panel Mounting Mid Clamp 50


SunLock Solar Panel Frame Mounting System - Mid Clamp 50

  

The SunLock Midclamp50 is used to fix panels with a frame height of 32 to 44mm. This clamp is used between panels mounted next to each other and creates a small (18mm) gap between panels to improve ventilation (beneficial for cooling), and to reduce wind loading. Like all SunLock framing clamps, a 6mm allen key is the only tool needed to secure the clamp. Sold as an individual item.

 

Here's three of many good reasons to choose the SunLock solar panel mounting system!

 

Australian Made - SunLock is an Australian designed and manufactured solar panel mounting system. Utilising custom designed and built aluminium extrusions and components, the SunLock system’s design greatly streamlines construction and improves frame strength in comparison to other systems.

 

Adaptability - SunLock’s significantly higher strength-to-weight ratio allows more efficient use and greater spans. Its highly versatile design offers adjustability and expandability to suit any job size.

 

Durability - Made entirely from aluminium and stainless steel, SunLock framing is suitable for long-term installation in all environments. SunLock framing is also backed by a 10 year warranty and is fully compliant with the Australian/New Zealand standard on wind actions AS/NZS 1170.2.2002, making it suitable for a wide variety of building types and climatic zones.
