The GF-27 Gripper Strut is the core rail of the GripperFix utility-mounting system for metal roofs. Built from Series 6000 aluminum and sized at 27 inches, it provides a rigid, corrosion-resistant base for securing HVAC, conduit, cable tray, satellite/antenna mounts, and other rooftop ancillaries without compromising roof integrity.
Purpose-Built Rail: Primary structural strut for the GripperFix system in a compact 27″ length.
Durable Aluminum: Manufactured from prime Series 6000 aluminum for strength and corrosion resistance.
Flexible Mounting: Works across standing-seam and exposed-fastener metal roofs via CF or EF Tabs.
Roof-Friendly: Helps maintain roof warranties by avoiding dissimilar-metal corrosion and preserving drainage paths.
Rooftop Utilities: HVAC units, conduit runs, condensate lines, satellite/antenna bases, cable tray, walkways, and small equipment stands.
Attach GF-27 to CF Tabs (with S-5 seam clamps/minis) for concealed-fix panels, or to EF Tabs for exposed-fastener panels. Secure utilities to the strut with M8 hardware per the ancillary vendor’s instructions and S-5 component sheets.
Systemized Components: GripperFix pairs struts, tabs, and clamps to create a non-penetrating or minimally penetrating utility platform designed to last the life of the roof.
Covered by S-5!’s Limited Lifetime Warranty, which protects against defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the roof on which the product is installed.
What this means in practice:
Coverage lasts as long as the roof remains in service
Applies when the product is installed correctly and used as intended
Remedy is repair or replacement of the defective product, at S-5!’s discretion
