S-5 Universal Roof Clip 10-Pack

S5-U Clip 10-Pack (10qty Heat Tape Clips in Pack)
Does Not include an S-5 Base

The S-5 Heat Tape Clip is the ultimate solution for the installation of ice dam heat tape on your standing seam roof. Allowing for easier installation then other standing seam heat tape clips, our S-5 SR clip can be installed 3 times faster because the clips can be installed on your S-5 base without the cable, and then can be easily adjusted without the need to unscrew hardware. Features a curved cable-grip to prevent sharp metal-edges from cutting into and compromising your heat tape and/or the product warranty. Available in quantities of 10. The S-5 Base is required to use this product.

The Radiant Solutions S-5 SR Universal Heat Tape clips features a slotted mount-opening for added positioning options, making it work for more standing seam heat tape installations. This clip can be installed without the heat tape inside it, making the process much easier to position them and place your heat tape later. Additionally use a 2-clip configuration on each S-5 clip for some unique and advantageous positioning of your Ice Dam heat tape.

Installing our heat tape on your standing seam roof can be very effective in combating ice dam formation. There’s two main products used to install heat tape on your standing seam metal roof: The S-5 SR Heat Tape Clip, and the standard ice dam heat tape clip.

S-5 SR Clip for Heat Tape & Standing Seam Roofs

Installing Heat Tape on a Standing Seam Roof with the S-5 SR Heat Tape Clip
The S-5 Heat Tape Roof Clip is a new, patented roof clip design specifically for standing seam applications with a focus on ease of install and effectiveness. It is used in conjunction with the S-5 Base, which needs to be purchased separately. The S-5 base is designed to clamp onto the seam of a metal roof as the S-5 Clip holds your ice dam heat tape into position. Can be set up in a single or dual-clip configuration. (See product page for more info)


Installing Heat Tape on a Standing Seam Roof with Standard Roof Clips

There are specific ways/configurations used when installing heat tape on a standing seam / metal roof using standard heat tape clips. The following (2.6 – figure 16.0 & 17.0) shows a snippet of the HeatTape Pro installation manual showing two different clip configurations, more info can be found in the manual itself: Heat Tape Pro installation Manual

There is no difference.

The terms heat cable, heat tape and heat trace are all used interchangeably to described heated cables used to protect pipes from freezing, preventing roof and gutter ice dams from forming and for safeguarding temperature sensitive components.

Other terms we’ve seen used regarding Heat Tape are:

  • Heat Coils & Heating Coils – Heat Tape has been called this because of the way the zig-zag pattern looks like a heating coil-element (like inside of a toaster)
  • Gutter Trace – Heat Tape get’s called this because of the usage in and around gutters

Yes We Do. However, it is fairly costly.
