Roof Hooks
Roof hooks are specialized fastening elements used in photovoltaics to securely and stably mount solar panels on a sloped roof. They are typically made of robust stainless steel or aluminum and are directly attached to the roof structure. Their shape and construction ensure a secure connection between the solar panels and the roof, even under extreme weather conditions like storms or snow loads.
Function:
- Attachment:
- The roof hooks connect the substructure of the solar installation (e.g., aluminum profiles) with the roof rafters.
- Stability:
- They ensure that the solar panels are firmly attached to the roof and cannot slip.
- Durability:
- High-quality roof hooks are corrosion-resistant and withstand weather influences.
Types of Roof Hooks:
There are various types of roof hooks suitable for different roof materials and constructions. The choice of the right roof hook depends on factors such as roof slope, roof covering (e.g., tiles, slate), and the type of solar panels.
Important Aspects to Consider: Sealing, load-bearing capacity, corrosion resistance, easy installation
