More Info
The EZ-RAFTER-B kit from SunModo is engineered for secure, watertight mounting of solar panels on pitched composition shingle roofs using direct rafter attachment.
Its aluminum flashing slides beneath shingles and integrates an EPDM sealing washer at the shoe threads to prevent water intrusion and maintain roof integrity.
The included 5/16″ stainless steel lag bolt fastens directly into structural rafters, providing high pullout capacity compliant with National Design Specification (NDS) tables.
This installer-ready kit contains all necessary components: aluminum flashing, L-Foot, roof shoe with gasket, lag bolt, aluminum hex cap, and stainless steel flange hardware.
SunModo’s system is IBC and IRC evaluated, with referenced structural and UL 441 rain testing ensuring code compliance and reliable performance.
Torque specifications are clearly defined to guarantee consistent mechanical strength: 25 ft-lb for lag bolts and 15 ft-lb for flange hardware and hex caps.
The black anodized finish offers a sleek, low-profile appearance that blends with dark shingles and resists corrosion for long-term durability.
Installation requires a 7/32″ pilot hole drilled into the rafter, with sealant applied before lag bolt insertion to maintain waterproofing as detailed in the installation manual.
SunModo is a U.S.-based manufacturer focused on innovative, installer-friendly solar racking solutions that meet UL and NEC standards for residential and commercial PV systems.
