Product Description

• Mid clamps (double clamps) for portrait orientation GSE In-Roof System installations
• Secures adjacent panels between array positions (not at edges)
• Premium anodized aluminium resists corrosion in outdoor conditions
• Black finish provides aesthetic consistency with black frames and components
• Height-specific design ensures proper grip on panel frames
• Double clamp configuration secures two panel edges simultaneously
• Part of GSE's comprehensive mounting component range
• Essential for secure panel retention in in-roof installations
• H21 single clamp in black can be used to complete GSE In-Roof PV mounting system installation

Additional Components Required (Not Included)

• 1 x Screw and washer for clamp fixing (black 6.5mm x 60mm screw ART106051 recommended)
• 1 x EPDM seal for weatherproofing
• These components must be purchased separately
• Essential for complete and secure clamp installation
• Note: Mid clamps do not typically require structural plastic blocks (used for end clamps only)

Installation Notes

• Select correct clamp height (H16, H21, or H26) based on panel frame thickness
• H21 suitable for 35mm HC / 40mm panel frames (most common)
• Position clamp between adjacent panels in portrait orientation
• Clamp grips both panel edges simultaneously (double clamp)
• Install EPDM seal for weatherproofing
• Secure with appropriate screw and washer (6.5mm x 60mm black recommended)
• Easy to install and use for efficient panel securing
• Ensure clamp height matches panel frame thickness for proper grip
• Do not over-tighten - compress to secure panels without deforming frames
• Trust that solar panels will stay in place and perform efficiently

Clamp Height Selection Guide

• H16: For thinner panel frames (check panel specifications)
• H21: For 35mm HC / 40mm panel frames (most common residential panels)
• H26: For medium thickness panel frames (check panel specifications)
• Always verify panel frame thickness before ordering
• Incorrect height may result in inadequate grip or panel damage
• Measure panel frame height to ensure proper clamp selection
