SolarMount Top Mounting—Faster Than Ever With T-Bolts

UniRac introduces T-bolt to further speed installation using its top mounting SolarMount system for racking photovoltaic arrays.

The fastest, easiest way to install a PV array is getting faster and easier. In June, UniRac will begin shipping T-bolts with our top mounting SolarMount systems.


T-bolts replace 1/4-inch hexhead bolts used with top mounting clamps to secure PV modules to the rails. They drop into the module mounting slot—anywhere along the length of the rail. The bolts capture with less than a quarter turn.

For example, rails that hold four 150-watt modules are typically 15 feet long. Instead of sliding in a hexhead bolt from the end of the rail, an installer can quickly drop in a T-bolt wherever it's needed.

The rail and T-bolt combination has undergone destructive laboratory testing at the University of New Mexico's Department of Civil Engineering. It remains UBC compliant when installed in accordance to UniRac's code-compliance documentation.

As with many recent UniRac innovations, this upgrade takes place with no price increase or model number change. All CT Series top mounting clamp sets will include T-bolts within two to three weeks.

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide - the ultimate solution for fast and easy installation of the rail-less RockIt racking system on composition shingle roofs. Smart Slide conforms to UL 441 and TAS 100 (A)-95 for wind and wind-driven rain, providing a super-strong watertight seal that is achieved through compression, in most cases without the need for additional sealant. The waterproofing sealant is embedded deep into the granules of the shingle, thanks to the integrated flexible foam layer that provides cushioning. This ensures a secure fit that conforms to any architectural-style shingle. With UltraGrip Technologyâ„¢, you can rely on a secure installation, as it absorbs the movement created by thermal expansion and contraction. The pre-installed sealing pads are compatible with all composition shingle roofs, making it the ideal choice, even in ambient temperatures as low as 5 degrees.
