FAQs

Can I use this clamp on 35mm solar panels?

No, this clamp is specifically engineered for 30mm panel thickness and will not provide the required tension for 35mm panels.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Fastensol Mid Clamp comes with a 12-year guarantee.

Is the black finish durable against UV exposure?

Yes, the coating is designed for long-term outdoor use and maintains its appearance and integrity for over 25 years.

Are these clamps sold individually?

Please check your specific retail packaging or distributor options; they are generally provided as standardized hardware components.

Do I need special tools to install these?

Yes, it is recommended to use a hex key or socket wrench to ensure the fastener is tightened to the correct torque specification.

Troubleshooting

Clamp does not sit flush against the rail.

Verify that the rail channel is clear of debris and that the T-bolt is correctly seated in the rail slot.

Difficulty achieving specified torque.

Ensure the T-bolt is not cross-threaded and that you are using a calibrated torque wrench for accurate tightening.

The clamp feels loose after installation.

Check that the panel thickness is exactly 30mm; if the panel is thinner, the clamp will not maintain proper clamping pressure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before beginning installation, verify that your solar panels are exactly 30mm thick, as this clamp will not accommodate panels that are thicker or thinner. During the setup process, ensure that the rails are perfectly aligned. Maintenance is straightforward; perform a bi-annual visual inspection of the clamps to ensure no hardware has loosened due to thermal expansion or severe weather events. Wipe down with a soft, dry cloth if the black coating accumulates debris, and avoid using abrasive chemicals that might compromise the finish.
