Tape sticks permanently to the entire bonded surface area compared to mechanical fasteners, which create stress at each separate attachment point. High bond tape is an ideal solution for affixing solar panels into frames, as well as mounting finished modules.
The entire bracket system can bear the self-weight of photovoltaic modules (about 15-20kg/m²), snow load (≤1. 6kN/m²), meeting the climate requirements of most areas.
For the vast majority of homeowners with properly sized systems, yes—not only do solar panels pay for themselves, but they usually generate tens of thousands of dollars in profit over the system's 25+ year lifespan.
Vendors seeking to do business with the Department of General Services (DGS) can view current bid opportunities on the California State Contracts Register (CSCR).
