The patented Roof Trac1' system installed with the Tile Trac9 attachment method provides an ideal solution for mounting on a tile roof. Tile Trac® reduces the possibility of broken tiles and leaking roofs, allowing the installer to make structural attachments to the roof rafter. The Roof Trac9' installed with the Tile Trac* allows the height of the solar support rails to be adjusted to compensate for uneven roofs. Roof Trac' & Fast Jack* protected under Patent #6,360,491, Tile Trac' protected under Patent #5,646,029. Illustrated above is how the Tile Trac9 attachment seamlessly integrates with the Roof Trac'9 mounting system. The Tile Trac9 attachment system is the perfect base for surface mounting on composition roofs! It has over 10 sq. inches of base to prevent damaging delicate composition shingles. The Roof Trac9 support rail was designed to conceal all attachment hardware. All connections are made inside the support rail hidden from view. All exposed aluminum is fully anodizedto module manufacturer specifications. Patented Slide-n-Clamp System END L CLAMP professional SOLAR products- INTERMODULE CLAMP SLIDE NUT Fully integrated, and patented, clamping system actually changes the structural properties of the aluminum channel making it significantly stronger. This design allows solar modules to be installed at a lower profile to the roof providing a more aesthetically pleasing installation.
