With its robust design, the Stopper Sleeve offers a reliable solution for bonding solar modules directly to IronRidge XR Rails, streamlining the installation process significantly.

Product Features

Integrated Grounding Solution

The Ironridge UFO-STP-40MM-M1 provides an integrated grounding solution that ensures direct bonding between solar modules and XR Rails. This feature minimizes the reliance on additional grounding hardware, enhancing the overall installation reliability and effectiveness.

Ease of Installation

Designed for user convenience, the Stopper Sleeve comes pre-assembled and lubricated, making it easy to install with a wide range of module heights. This ensures a faster setup time, allowing installers to focus on getting their systems operational without delays.

Robust Construction

The UFO Clear Stopper Sleeve is built with durability in mind. It is engineered to withstand extreme outdoor environments, ensuring that your solar installation remains reliable and secure for years to come. Its solid construction contributes to the enhancement of overall system safety.

Versatility Across Systems

This product is compatible with all IronRidge XR Rails, including Flush Mount, Tilt Mount, and Ground Mount systems. This versatility makes the UFO-STP-40MM-M1 a suitable grounding solution for various solar panel configurations across different projects.

UL 2703 Certified

Safety is paramount, and the Ironridge UFO Clear Stopper Sleeve is UL 2703 certified. This certification ensures that it meets stringent safety standards for solar mounting systems, providing peace of mind for installers and end-users alike.

How It Works

The Ironridge UFO Clear Stopper Sleeve operates by creating a secure electrical bond between the solar panels and XR Rails. By using self-drilling screws, this product forms a reliable connection that eliminates the need for additional bonding straps, enhancing the reliability of the entire system.

Stopper Sleeve Functionality

When installed, the Stopper Sleeve snaps onto the UFO hardware, converting it into a bonded end clamp. This conversion is crucial for establishing multiple grounding paths within the installation, leading to improved safety and reduced risk of electrical faults.

Efficient Grounding Paths

The design of the UFO system promotes multiple parallel grounding paths, which contributes to a more effective grounding solution. This distribution of bonding points enhances the stability and safety of the entire solar setup.

Installation Compatibility

Each Stopper Sleeve is tailored to fit a range of module heights, ensuring that it can adapt to various installation configurations. This flexibility makes it an essential component for efficient and effective solar panel installations.
