Solar U-Bolt Beam Clamp with Pressure Plate

Solar U-Bolt Beam Clamp with Pressure Plate for PV Mounting Structures

Chudu Metal Solar U-Bolt Beam Clamp with Pressure Plate is a complete fastening and clamping assembly designed for connecting steel beams, C channels, purlins, support members and other structural components in solar photovoltaic mounting systems.

The complete assembly typically consists of a U-bolt, upper pressure plate, lower locking plate, nuts and washers, providing a secure mechanical connection without requiring complicated structural modifications.

Manufactured from high-strength carbon steel with a hot-dip galvanized surface finish, the clamp provides good mechanical strength and corrosion resistance for outdoor solar mounting applications.

The U-bolt shape allows the assembly to wrap around structural members, while the pressure plate and locking plate distribute the clamping force across the connection area. This helps provide a stable and reliable connection in ground-mounted solar structures and other steel PV support systems.

Chudu Metal can manufacture different U-bolt dimensions, plate sizes, hole configurations, thread specifications and surface treatments according to customer drawings, samples and project requirements.

Hex Nuts
Used to tighten and secure the complete clamp assembly.

Flat Washers / Spring Washers
Can be supplied according to customer or project requirements.

Product Features

1. Complete U-Bolt Clamping Assembly

The product is supplied as a complete fastening solution including the U-bolt, pressure plates, nuts and washers.

2. Strong Structural Connection

The U-bolt and plate combination provides a secure connection between steel structural members used in photovoltaic mounting systems.

3. Hot-Dip Galvanized Surface

The galvanized coating provides improved corrosion resistance for long-term outdoor installation environments.

4. Uniform Load Distribution

The pressure plate helps distribute the clamping force over a larger contact area, reducing concentrated stress on the connected structural member.

5. Easy Installation

The clamp structure can be installed using standard fastening tools and does not normally require complex welding during assembly.

6. Suitable for Different Steel Structures

The assembly can be customized for different beam sizes, C channels, purlins and other steel support profiles.

7. Custom Manufacturing Available

U-bolt diameter, thread size, plate dimensions, hole positions and coating requirements can be produced according to drawings or samples.
