PV fasteners and cable routing built for speed, strength, and longevity
Our clip based solutions provide a variety of advantages over traditional mounting systems like clamps, with screws and bolts.
By eliminating component pre-assembly steps, reducing fastening operations, and torque controlled tightening, clips significantly reduce installation time and maintenance effort.
They are designed to be compatible with both manual and automated assembly processes, simplifying installation while ensuring consistent and repeatable results.
With just a few controlled insertion motions, PV panels are securely retained, helping EPCs improve productivity, limit installation variability, and reduce labor costs and the risk of module damage.
Trackers
Utility‑scale solar trackers operate under high loads and harsh environmental conditions, making fastener reliability critical.
Our PV fasteners are purpose‑designed for tracker systems, engineered to withstand wind uplift, dynamic loads, extreme weather, and long service lives, while enabling efficient installation and reliable terrain‑following performance.
Cinch Clips
- Provides resistance to load fatigue and prevents cable fanning.
- Single-step fastening. Secure the module frame to the rail by pushing the clip into place, either by hand or with a manual tool.
- Designed for mounting from underneath the module.
- Easy maintenance enabled by fast disassembly using a standard tool.
- No pre‑mounting required, unlike top clamps.
- Designed for standard aluminum framed modules and metal structures.
- Developed to support automated installation processes.
- Size flexibility with clip variants to fit all panel thicknesses.
Wedge Clips
- Design compatible with First Solar Series 7 TR1.
- Single-step fastening. Secure the module frame to the rail by inserting the clip into place with a power tool.
- Designed for mounting from underneath the module.
- Easy maintenance enabled by fast disassembly using a standard tool.
Fixed tilt
Fixed‑tilt solar structures demand long‑term stability in demanding outdoor conditions, where fastener reliability directly impacts structural integrity and lifetime performance. Developers face challenges such as corrosion, uneven loads, installation variability, and long‑term maintenance exposure that can increase costs over time.
Our PV fasteners for fixed‑tilt systems are designed to delivering durable, corrosion‑resistant, and installation‑efficient connections that support consistent performance throughout the project lifetime.
Cinch Clips
- Single-step fastening. Secure the module frame to the rail by pushing the clip into place, either by hand or with a manual tool.
- Designed for mounting from underneath the module.
- Easy maintenance enabled by fast disassembly using a standard tool.
- No pre‑mounting required, unlike top clamps.
- Designed for standard aluminum framed modules and metal structures.
- The Cinch Clip locked version is designed for installations exposed to frequent high winds, it maintains retention over time and prevents loosening after repeated wind exposure.
- Size flexibility with clip variants from XS to XL to fit all panel thicknesses.
Tile, flat commercial, and tin roofs
Rooftop solar installations face limited access, diverse roof geometries, and constrained working space, making fastening efficiency and safety critical. Fasteners must enable safe, efficient installation while ensuring secure, long‑term attachment to rails or mounting profiles.
Our rooftop PV fastening solutions are designed to simplify module‑to‑rail assembly, improve installer ergonomics, and deliver reliable performance across diverse roof types over the system lifetime.
Snap Clips
- Pre-clipped onto the module frame, then assembled with a couple of simple push movements by the installer, a fast and secure “grip-and-clip” installation.
- Anti-theft protection. High-performance fastening requiring a specific removable tool.
- Standard-fit design. Compatible with aluminum-framed PV modules and steel structures
- Multiple clip variants designed to fit small and large rail sections, and extra-large module surfaces with high load capacity.
- Grounding performance: subject to conditions.
Shed roofs and carports
Shed roofs and carports combine structural exposure with architectural constraints, requiring fasteners that balance strength, precision, and installation efficiency. Variable spans, wind loads, and overhead installation conditions make secure and reliable connections essential.
Our PV fasteners for shed roofs and carports are purpose‑designed to support fast, safe installation while delivering durable, long‑term performance in these exposed applications.
Cinch Clips

- Size flexibility with clip variants from XS to XL to fit all panel thicknesses.
Clamp adaptors
- Universal clip base compatible with both C‑ and Z‑rails, enabling easy clamp integration.
- Eliminates rail drilling and washer requirements, streamlining the overall installation process.
- The carbon‑steel clip is designed to prevent loosening, and elimintes the need of a washer.
- Supports clamp pre‑assembly, allowing faster on‑site installation with a single clipping operation.
Cable Management & Grounding
Tight installation schedules and continuous exposure to demanding environmental conditions mean PV installations require reliable cable management to ensure long‑term system safety and performance. Poorly supported DC wiring can lead to abrasion, electrical faults, inverter shutdowns.
Using durable, purpose-built fastening solutions ensures that cables stay securely routed, protected from movement, UV exposure, and mechanical stress. Robust cable management helps maintain system efficiency, reduces maintenance needs, and safeguards the installation throughout its lifetime.
Cable Clips
- ARaymond clips are designed for ergonomic, tool‑free installation and quick cable routing, reducing handling time compared to standard cable strap installations.
- Robust cable fasteners that can accommodate various wire diameters and standard panel thicknesses.
- Metal clips suitable for harsh, high-temperature environments.
- Modular adapters and anchor points effectively manage wiring, allow attaching cables over, along or on the side of module edges ar rail structures
- The clip is designed with rounded edges to avoid damaging the cables.
Grounding Clip Rayvolt
- Enables stripping, connecting electrically and fastening the cable in one easy, hassle-free step.
- Fits all aluminum frame panels or steel/aluminum rails ranging from 1.5 mm to 2.5 mm in thickness.
- Made for multi-strand flexible 6 mm² green yellow cables.
The Kia West Point solar hail-protection canopy was a highly specialized project that required close engineering collaboration across the entire team.
ARaymond worked with us early in the design process to ensure their fastening technology integrated seamlessly with the racking system and supported the project’s goals. Their willingness to validate, test, and adapt the solution gave us confidence we could meet Kia’s unique requirements at unprecedented scale. ARaymond proved to be not just a component supplier, but a true development partner.
