The 40x40 aluminium rail is the fundamental structural component for building photovoltaic mounting systems. This product is a load-bearing profile used to mechanically support solar panels on roofs or ground-mounted structures.
The length is chosen simply by selecting the desired quantity: 1 unit corresponds to a 1.19 m rail and 2 units correspond to a 2.38 m rail. Each quantity ordered corresponds to a rail delivered in one piece, adjusted according to your selection. Please note that the maximum length for transport is 2.40 m.
This accessory is specifically compatible with quick end and middle clamps as well as k2-type fixing hooks. This device creates a rigid fixing base that can be integrated into any mounting ecosystem requiring a 40x40mm section for increased resistance to climatic loads.
Technical advantages of the 40x40 rail:
- Modularity: available in 1.19 m or 2.38 m sections to suit your project.
- High strength: robust aluminium alloy that can withstand wind and snow loads.
- Installation: grooves compatible with M8 bolts and hammerhead nuts.
- Durability: oxidation-resistant material for maximum outdoor longevity.
