What buyers say on Amazon

★★★★★
The kind of thing I want to have at the most critical position on my solar array. Face it, a solar array can be a wind sail, and everything has to be strong from the start.

★★★★★
This is a very large piece of steel… It also comes with large nuts and bolts.
Al H
★★★★★
I have no doubt in my mind that this bracket is up to the task because it's built very well.

Easy to mount.

FAQ

Top of pole mount questions

How does shipping work?

Shipping is free. Amazon packs and ships every order from its fulfillment centers and emails you tracking. Prime members can check out with Buy with Prime for Prime delivery.

What's the difference between the 2"–3" and 4" mounts?

Only the ground pipe size. The 2"–3" mount fits 2" (2 3/8" OD), 2.5" (2 7/8" OD) or 3" (3.5" OD) pipe, and the 4" mount fits 4" (4.5" OD) pipe. Both hold the same panels on 2" (2 3/8" OD) horizontal pipe.

How many solar panels can I put on one pole?

Up to 3 large 300-400W panels or up to 6 100W panels.

Can I adjust the tilt angle?

Yes. The tilt is fully adjustable so you can set the best angle for your location and change it by season.

Is hardware included?

Yes, for the pipes. The mount comes with U-bolts and bolts to attach it to your ground pipe and horizontal pipe. Hardware to attach your panels (strut, clamps, screws) is not included.

Do I need more than one pole?

Not for up to 6 small or 3 large panels. For bigger systems, see our array top caps, which connect 2-20 poles.

Building something bigger?

Array top caps connect 2-20 poles for a ground mount with dozens of panels.
