Installation Instructions
S-5!® Warning! Please use these products responsibly! Visit our website or
contact your S-5! distributor for available load test results. The user and/or
installer of these parts is responsible for all necessary engineering and design
to ensure the S-5-H90 has been properly spaced and configured.
Notice to S-5! users: Due to the many variables involved with specific
panel products, climates, snow melt phenomena, and job particulars, the
manufacturer cannot and does not express any opinions as to the suitability
of any S-5! assembly for any specific application and assumes no liability with
respect thereto. S-5! products are tested for ultimate holding strength on
various profile types and materials. Visit www.S-5.com for more details. This
document is an installation guide only and the photographs and drawings
herein are for the purpose of illustrating installation, tools and techniques,
not system designs. Information contained within is intended to apply to the
document as a whole.
The S-5-H90 & H90 Mini are designed and made specifically for standing
seam profiles with a horizontal fold equal to or greater than 0.65". For these
applications, the setscrew(s) must be accessible from the top for tightening; for
other horizontal seam clamp options visit www.S-5.com.
Tools Needed
• Screw Gun*
• 3/16" Allen Bit Tip (provided)
• Dial-Calibrated Torque Wrench
(For accurate tension values, do NOT use a clicking torque
wrench; inquire with S-5! for proper tool sourcing)
To Install the S-5-H90
1. Partially thread the setscrews into the clamp by hand.
2. Turn the clamp so that the bolt hole side is facing up; slip
the clamp onto the horizontal portion of the seam.
4.
For critical attachment applications, tighten the included M8-1.25 X 16 mm Hex Flange Bolt to 160 inch pounds (13
foot pounds).
The right way to attach almost anything to metal roofs!
These instructions are for use by those experienced in the trade. Always follow appropriate safety precautions and use appropriate tools.

Once installed correctly, these clamps require no maintenance or re-
inspection for the life of the roof.
3. Tighten the setscrews using a screw gun* and the included screw gun
bit tip. Setscrews should be tensioned and re-tensioned as the seam
material compresses, i.e. tighten the first setscrew, then the second;
then repeat until each setscrew achieves the recommended torque.
The setscrews will dimple the seam material but will not penetrate it.
When relying on published load values, setscrew tension should be
verified periodically using a calibrated torque wrench as indicated
below to ensure the tool is consistently achieving the proper torque
range.
