IR-05 BallastBase™ Flat Roof Mount
- 30 Second Assembly Per Bracket
- 5 Minute Install Per Module
- Capable of Racking Solar Modules Up 700 Watts
- Multiple Roof Mounting Methods
- Integrated Module Bonding & Micro-Inverter Mounting
IR-05 BallastBase™ Flat Roof Mount
The IR-05 BallastBase Flat Roof Mount is the fastest, strongest, and most cost effective 5 degree ballast system on the market. Each mount can be assembled in less than 30 seconds, and modules can be mounted in under a minute, for lightning fast installation times! This system offers multiple mounting options to work for any job while being capable of racking solar modules of up to 700 Watts, even with no roof penetration. Our IR-05 is designed to clamp around a standard cinder block and the integrated handle allows one person to carry and place multiple IR-05s with weight without the fatigue caused by other ballasted basket type systems. If your project requires less weight on the roof, this mount can also be installed with deck screws or our own IntegraGel Industrial Strength Adhesive.
*If installing on a roof without a surrounding parapet, the sides and back of the system must be covered to block wind from getting underneath the solar panels.
This product conforms to UL 2703 Mechanical and Bonding requirements.

Bonding
Solar Module Bonding
The IR-F2 Under Mount Flange Clamp Bonding Bracket works to firmly clamp the solar panels to the IR-05 while bonding the panels together in each row. The pointed teeth in each IR-F2 are designed to bite into and penetrate the anodized aluminum flange of the solar modules' frame once the panel is locked into place.
Bonding Between Rows
For bonding between rows of modules, we offer 8" and 12" IR-B1 Bonding Jumpers that are UL 2703 recognized. The bonding jumpers have small internal bonding barbs and they clamp to the bottom inner flange of the solar modules to provide bonding from row to row.
FEATURES
Lightning Fast Assembly and Install
The IR-05 is the fastest, strongest, and most cost effective ballast systems on the market. Each base system can be assembled in less than 30 seconds, and modules can be mounted in under a minute, for lightning fast installation times!
Strong, Simple Design
The IR-05 is designed to clamp around a standard cinder block and the integrated handle allows one person to carry and place multiple base systems with weight, without the fatigue caused by other ballasted basket type systems. This system is capable of racking solar modules of up to 700 Watts, and each bracket is equipped with a micro-inverter/solar optimizer mounting point.
Quick Fold Bend Tabs
The bend tabs incorporated into the top of the mount create a shelf to rest the panel on so you can have the panel in position before locking it in place with the clamps. This allows for easy adjustment and wiring prior to completing the install.
Easy Module Mounting
With the bend tabs and the simple design of the IR-F2 clamps, even one person can install panels using this system while still being far easier and less taxing than traditional flat roof ballasted systems.
