Rail for photovoltaic systems on trapezoidal metal sheet roofs. Suitable for panels with landscape orientation.
Rail SolarMetal
SolarMetal is the rail made of aluminium AW 6063 T66 for PV systems on trapezoidal metal sheet roofs. The section is optimised for fastening along the rib of the metal sheet, allowing the assembly of PV panels with landscape layout. Available in long or short rails (with pre-assembled EPDM). Compatible with ALG rivets or self-drilling screws.
Complete range made of: long rails for an easy alignment and mounting during the installation; short rails for cost optimization and no issues related to thermal expansion.
Short rails with pre-assembled EPDM on the bottom ready for the installation.
Short rails are pre-drilled for installation with either ALG rivets or self-drilling screws.
Properties
Aluminium alloy EN AW 6060 T66 in accordance with EN 755-2:2013.
EPDM rubber gasket, 2 mm thick.

Functionality
Choose between long rails and short rails depending on the installation layout and considering the thermal expansion.
In case of long rails, determine the centre distance of the fastenings according to snow and wind loads (use SOLARPANEL-FIX software to design the system).
In case of short rails apply a fastening on every hole.
Only for long rails, stick a layer of CG INT butyl adhesive tape (minimun lenght 80 mm) on the trapezoidal metal sheet rib before applying and fastening the rail.
Position the rail on the trapezoidal metal sheet.
For fastening with ALG rivets:
Long rail:drill 5.5 mm both the rail and the metal sheet.
Short rail: drill 5.5 mm the metal sheet.
For fastening with Solar screws:
Long rail: drill 5.5 mm the rail and screw directly into the metal sheet;
