Description Want a rail system for your solar array that maximizes strength, is really affordable, and actually looks good? You’ve found it in Ironridge and their XR series rails. This is the page highlighting the Ironridge XR100 rails. The most popular rail for Canadian homes. Ironridge created the XR series, because solar is not always sunny. Over their lifetime, solar panels experience countless extreme weather events. Not just the worst storms in years, but the worst storms in 40 years. High winds capable of ripping panels from a roof, and snowfalls weighing enough to buckle a panel frame. XR Rails are the structural backbone preventing these results. They resist uplift, protect against buckling and safely and efficiently transfer loads into the building structure. Their superior spanning capability requires fewer roof attachments, reducing the number of roof penetrations and the amount of installation time. Ironridge XR100 Unique Shape… Exceptional Strength The Ironridge XR100 features a force-stabilizing curve on one side of the rail extrusion. Sloped roofs generate both vertical and lateral forces on mounting rails which can cause them to bend and twist. The curved shape of XR Rails is specially designed to increase strength in both directions while resisting the twisting. This unique feature ensures greater security during extreme weather and a longer system lifetime. Dimensions Available lengths: 11′, 14′, 17′ Profile Height : 2.5″ Profile Width : 1-1/4″ Corrosion-Resistant Materials XR Rails are made of 6000-series aluminum alloy, then protected with an anodized finish. Anodizing prevents surface & structural corrosion, while also providing a more attractive appearance. Compatibility With All Attachments Ironridge XR rails are compatible with the Ironridge FlashFoot 2 roof attachment, or any others on the market such as Quick Mount PV, S-5!, and the FastRack Talon. Order the Bonded Square Bolt hardware to attach the XR Rails to any L-Foot. Splices For Longer Arrays The XR100 Series Bonded Splice is available to join XR rails. Rail End Caps Finish your rail ends neatly with plastic end caps for the XR100.
