Product Overview

Apollo SEAM

The Apollo SEAM is a non-penetrating solar panel mounting system engineered for standing seam metal roofs. Built entirely from AL6005-T5 anodized aluminum, the system clamps directly onto standing seam profiles without any drilling — preserving the roof membrane, maintaining existing roof warranties, and eliminating water intrusion risks. Designed for residential, commercial, and industrial standing seam metal roof installations.

Rated for 45 m/s design wind speed and roof slopes up to 45°, the Apollo SEAM is certified to JIS C 8955:2017, AS/NZS 1170, DIN 1055, ASCE/SEI 7-05, and IBC 2009. The all-aluminum construction delivers superior corrosion resistance for coastal and tropical environments, with a 25–30 year design life and 12-year product warranty. Project-specific structural calculations are available for every installation.

The quick-connect seam clamp system eliminates drilling, anchor bolts, and sealant — reducing installation time and labor costs. Three core components — mounting rail, end/mid clamps, and seam clamp kit — support both portrait and landscape panel orientations across snap-lock, mechanical lock, and double-lock standing seam profiles.

Why Choose Apollo SEAM

Key Advantages

Simplified Mounting

Quick-connect seam clamps eliminate drilling and sealant. Fewer steps, less labor, faster project completion for installers and EPC contractors.

Universal Compatibility

Works with snap-lock, mechanical lock, and double-lock standing seam profiles. Supports portrait and landscape panel orientations on roofs up to 45° slope.

Premium AL6005-T5 Aluminum

All-aluminum construction provides high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance for coastal and tropical climates — no rust, no degradation over 25–30 years.

Non-Penetrating Design

Zero roof penetrations means the existing roof warranty stays intact. No water intrusion risk, no structural compromise — the roof stays sealed.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Apollo SEAM works with most common standing seam metal roof profiles, including snap-lock, mechanical lock, and double-lock configurations. The adjustable seam clamp accommodates seam heights from 25mm to 65mm. Contact our engineering team with your roof profile details for compatibility confirmation.
Yes. The Apollo SEAM clamps grip the standing seam from the outside using set screws — no drilling, no holes, no sealant. The roof membrane remains completely intact, preserving the roof manufacturer's warranty and eliminating water intrusion risk.
The system is built entirely from AL6005-T5 anodized aluminum with SUS304 stainless steel hardware. This combination provides excellent corrosion resistance for coastal, tropical, and high-humidity environments without additional coatings or maintenance.
The Apollo SEAM is rated for design wind speeds up to 45 m/s. Each seam clamp distributes wind uplift loads directly into the standing seam profile without concentrated stress points. The all-aluminum AL6005-T5 construction provides inherent salt-spray corrosion resistance for coastal installations. Project-specific structural calculations are provided to verify compliance with local wind codes.
Standard Apollo SEAM clamps are designed for straight standing seam profiles. For curved, tapered, or non-standard seam configurations, our engineering team can provide customized clamp solutions. Contact us with your roof profile details and panel layout requirements.
The Apollo SEAM supports solar modules up to 2384 × 1303mm in both portrait and landscape orientations. The rail-based design accommodates current and next-generation large-format panels. For oversized or custom module dimensions, contact our engineering team.
The seam clamp grips the raised standing seam profile using set screws that tighten against the seam from the outside. The clamp exerts clamping force on the seam without piercing or deforming the roof panel. This preserves the roof membrane integrity and keeps the manufacturer's roof warranty valid.
Yes. Megawa Solar provides project-specific structural calculations covering wind uplift, dead loads, and seam clamp pull-out resistance. Calculations comply with JIS C 8955, AS/NZS 1170, DIN 1055, ASCE/SEI 7, and IBC 2009 based on your project location and local building code requirements.
We provide detailed installation guides, engineering drawings, and dedicated technical support throughout the project. For commercial and industrial installations, on-site installation supervision and structural calculations are also available.
The Apollo SEAM carries a 12-year product warranty against defects in material and workmanship, with a design life of 25–30 years. The non-penetrating clamp-on installation also preserves the standing seam roof manufacturer's warranty — a key advantage over penetrating mount systems.
