At QuickBOLT, we are experts on mounts and conduit supports are no exception. Our conduit mounting solutions offer great flexibility in bundling cables and wires. Our newest solution for conduit is our Conduit Mount for Asphalt Shingle, TPO and EPDM roofs. This mount features a 7/8” high EPDM Cylinder. Installers can use this in combination with their conduit shoulder clips for supporting conduit on the rooftop. You may be wondering, why the 7/8” cylinder? Why not mount cables directly to the roof? The answer is in the code. The 2020 NFPA Code 310.15(B)(2) states: “For raceways or cables exposed to direct sunlight on or above rooftops, where the distance above the roof to the bottom of the raceway is less than 23 mm (7â8 in.), a temperature adder of 33°C (60°F) shall be added to the outdoor temperature to determine the applicable ambient temperature for application of the correction factors in Table 310.15(B)(1) or Table 310.15(B)(2).” Hence why we developed this EPDM cylinder that keeps conduit lifted high enough off the roof to satisfy the National Fire Protection Association code. We offer a variety of conduit mounting solutions for Asphalt Shingle, TPO, EPDM and Curved Tile roofs so you can choose the option that suits your job best. |
