Esdec ClickFit Evo Truss Hook Grey: The Dependable Anchor for Tiled Roof Solar Arrays

Secure your investment in solar energy with the Esdec ClickFit Evo Truss Hook. This heavy-duty grey hook is specifically engineered for mounting the ClickFit Evo rail system securely onto the timber trusses of tiled roofs. Providing a reliable anchor point for your solar panels is fundamental for system safety and longevity, helping you harness solar power effectively and manage your energy costs against fluctuating energy tariffs for years to come.

Direct Truss Fixing for Maximum Stability

Unlike some other fixing methods, the Truss Hook is designed to be screwed directly into the structural timber roof trusses beneath the tiles. This direct connection provides exceptional strength and resistance to wind uplift forces, forming the most secure foundation for the ClickFit Evo system on compatible tiled roofs. Esdec's technical documentation provides details on load capacities and fixing requirements.

Adjustability and Ease of Installation

Roof structures and tile battens aren't always perfectly uniform. This Esdec Truss Hook typically incorporates adjustability features:

• Allows for vertical adjustment to accommodate varying batten heights and ensure the mounting rail sits level.
• Simplifies alignment during installation, saving time on the roof.
• Features pre-drilled holes for secure fastening to the truss using appropriate screws (ensure correct specification screws are used).
• The rail then simply clicks onto the hook, maintaining the speed of the ClickFit Evo system.

Durable Construction for Harsh Environments

Manufactured from high-grade galvanised or stainless steel (confirm material via datasheet), this Truss Hook is built to withstand the demanding UK weather conditions for decades. Its robust design ensures it can handle the static and dynamic loads imposed by the solar array. This durability is backed by Esdec's comprehensive system warranty, typically 20 years, when installed correctly with components like module clamps and rail couplers.
