Ridge clamp bracket ELKO-BIS G5 universal pressed 65x200–390mm galvanized

ELKO-BIS universal ridge clamp bracket G5 is a pressed, galvanized mounting accessory designed to secure ridge tiles and roof profiles. The bracket offers an adjustable clamp range of 65×200–390 mm, enabling a stable mechanical connection across a variety of ridge shapes and thicknesses. Made from galvanized steel, it resists corrosion and is intended for installations where a reliable, load-bearing ridge fastening is required.

Advantages

The bracket is manufactured from pressed, galvanized steel for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. Its adjustable clamp range accommodates different ridge geometries and thicknesses without the need for custom fabrication. The simple clamping mechanism allows for quick alignment and secure fastening, while the universal design supports compatibility with common roofing materials and profiles.

Suitable for

• Securing ridge tiles on pitched roofs
• Fastening metal roof profiles at the ridge
• Roof repair and retrofit jobs where existing ridge elements need mechanical support
• Applications requiring a corrosion-resistant connection on external roof ridges

When it may not be suitable

This pressed, galvanized bracket is suitable for most standard ridge shapes, but it may not be appropriate for highly irregular, custom-shaped, or very thin fragile ridge tiles that require specialized clamps or padding to avoid damage. For installations exposed to aggressive chemical environments or where stainless-steel resistance is specified, a different material grade should be considered.

Key specifications

• Material: pressed galvanized steel
• Adjustable clamp range: 65×200–390 mm
• Design: universal ridge clamp bracket for ridge tiles and roof profiles
• Finish: corrosion-resistant zinc coating
• Application: external roof ridge mechanical fastening

How to use

Position the bracket over the ridge element so that the adjustable clamp spans the tile or profile thickness within the 65×200–390 mm range. Align the bracket for proper siting along the ridge line, then tighten the clamp mechanism to create a firm mechanical connection. Ensure that any fasteners used to secure the bracket to supporting structure are appropriate for the underlying material and that the bracket is not overtightened on fragile tiles. Follow local roofing practice for spacing and additional fixings to achieve required wind uplift and load resistance.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure ridge thickness and profile to confirm compatibility with the 65×200–390 mm clamp range
• Verify that galvanized steel and zinc coating meet the expected corrosion resistance for your environment
• Confirm compatibility with your roofing material (clay, concrete, metal profiles, etc.) and whether padding or protective measures are needed
• Check local fastening and wind-uplift requirements to determine quantity and spacing

Usage recommendations

Use matching corrosion-resistant fasteners and follow manufacturer or local roofing standards for spacing. For fragile ridge tiles consider protective washers or pads under the clamp contact points. Inspect installed brackets periodically for signs of corrosion or loosening and re-tighten or replace as necessary to maintain secure ridge fastening.
