AceClamp™ Installation

Recommendations for Installing the ACECLAMP™

The ACECLAMP™ is designed to fit most of the common vertical standing seam configurations. If you have questions about the fit-up on your specific standing seam roof panel, contact us.

The two socket-head hex screws shown in Photo #1 are the screws that will pull the bottom insert up the inclined plane to apply the clamping force across the standing seam rib. The two threaded holed are for securing the roofing accessory (solar panel, antenna base, A/C unit, etc.) to the ACECLAMP™.

The ACECLAMP™ is designed so that all fastening - securing the clamp to the roof panel and the accessory to the clamp is done from the top. No need to reach around to the side or back of the clamp to tighten any screws.

Position the clamp loosely on the seam, oriented to best fit the style of panel on the roof. Locate the clamp so that the mounting holes are aligned with the accessory being secured with the clamps. Tighten the two socket-head hex screws using a 3/16" allen wrench attachment in a 1/4" or larger screwgun*. Tighten and retighten each screw as the panel seam compresses. (Contact us for the recommended torque to secure the ACECLAMP™ to the specific panel you are using.)

Photo #2 shows the ACECLAMP™ as secured to a typical standing seam panel. The two additional sockethead hex screws have been loosely installed in the top of the clamp ready to attach the accessory.

*We recommend that you install the ACECLAMP™ with an electrically powered industrial grade screwgun capable of generating 150 in-lbs of torque. Screw torque requirements will vary depending on the type of panel and seam. Contact us for our recommendation for optimum safe securement.
