    Allows Use of Much Less Expensive EMT Conduit ("by Design")
    – Readily available 1-1/2" EMT Conduit is much cheaper than the typically specified 1-1/4" Schedule 40 Pipe.
    Example of Cost Savings (My large retail building supply's pricing):
    Galvanized 1-1/4” Sch40 pipe @ .70/ft.
    Galvanized 1-1/2” EMT Conduit @ .90/ft.
    Est. four lengths (10') for 4 posts & two lengths for the four horizontals (@ 5' each),
    For the estimated 60 ft total required,
    Example Project's Savings = {{detail_product_description}}.80/ft x 60 ft = .
    Example Material Savings = 60% of Kit’s price
    .
    Actually, even further cost & labor savings exist with the EMT Conduit design:
    - no
    expensive
    Pressure-Rated Galvanized Pipe Fittings
    - no
    separate Galvanized Hardware
    -
    no need to cut
    the much
    thicker wall
    Pipe, etc.

    Simplified Installation ("by Design")
    – Slip in the EMT tubing & tighten the set screws,
    no use of U-bolts, flat plates, angles, or other "misapplied" components & no hassle with nuts, bolts, and washers (or the wish for "3 hands").
    ·
    Easiest to Adjust ("by Design")
    – Allows for 360 degrees of rotation and 0° to 90° of tilt
    of individual panels
    after the panels are installed
    (or at any time) with only loosening/tightening set screws.

    ONLY 3 KITS (EACH KIT CONSISTS OF 4 CUSTOM-FABRICATED SILVER-GALVANIZED HEAVY STRUCTURAL TEES) AVAILABLE AS OF THIS WRITING.
    THESE ONE-OF-A-KIND PRODUCTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE FROM OTHER SOURCES.
    THIS OFFERING IS A
    LIMITED PRODUCTION RUN
    ; PLEASE,
    IF YOU THINK YOU MIGHT EVER WANT
    A D.I.Y. PROFESSIONAL-STYLE SOLAR PANEL INSTALLATION, ORDER BEFORE THIS (... MINIMUM PROFIT PRICED ...) AD EXPIRES.
    ..........
    THE MAIN DETAILS:
    Again, this kit is for the Do-It-Yourselfer (D.I.Y.) that wants a truly robust Quality/Commercial/Professional-Style solar panel installation with a minimal amount of time and effort.
    (If you can install a fence post and can use one of the many methods available to cut high-strength, thin-wall metal tubing & standard strut channel (Unistrut) to length, as do thousands of Electricians every day, you should have no issues with the installation.)
    ..........
    The mounts easily allow for 360 degrees of rotation and 0° to 90° of tilt
    of each panel
    after the panels are installed
    .  Resetting the orientation only requires loosening and retightening the set screws.  Usages:
    Ø
    Winter versus Summer orientations/exposures (more likely, since it is
    very easy
    , just loosen/tighten the set screws)
    Ø
    To maximize harvest of morning hours with some panels and evening hours with others
    Ø
    To align panel rows with a fence or along a property line (and still maintain proper orientation)
    Ø
    After relocation of the solar panels
    ……..
    THE KIT TEE COMPONENTS INCLUDED ARE FOR THE INSTALLATION OF EITHER EIGHT SOLAR PANELS ON FOUR POSTS OR FOUR (MAX SIZE) SOLAR PANELS ON FOUR POSTS (PLEASE SEE GRAPHICS).
    ........
    The D.I.Y. Solar Panel Support kit includes four (4) of the main Custom-Bored Heavy Structural Tee component
    that makes the installations a snap.
    ……..
    PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE OTHER NECESSARY MATERIALS (SHOWN IN THE ASSEMBLY GRAPHICS) TO CREATE A COMPLETE ASSEMBLY (EMT CONDUIT, STRUT CHANNEL, CONDUIT CLAMPS, AND PANEL-SPECIFIC FASTENERS)
    ARE NOT INCLUDED
    .
    These are all "standard" items and are typically "off the shelf" at Home Depot, Lowes, or an Electrical Supply House.  They are also available from online sources (Amazon, online Electrical Warehouse sites, etc.).

    EVEN MORE DETAILS
    :
    ……..
    This unique custom tee is made of heavy cast iron, is silver galvanized (complementing the conduit finish), & is custom bored for a slip fit with a 1½" E.M.T. conduit. The design provides both cost and labor savings by incorporating common 1-1/2" E.M.T. galvanized conduit (high yield strength of 50,000+ psi, 1.740" outside diameter - much less expensive than the schedule 40 galvanized pipe alternative). The design uses the economic E.M.T. conduit for both the upright post tube and the one-piece horizontal panel support tube.  Each tee's outlet has a
    LARGE
    set screw that securely grips the E.M.T. conduit once the orientation and tilt are adjusted.  A standard 5/16" (or 8 mm) hex Allen L-shaped wrench is required for assembly.   Each post assembly can support either two solar panels or one large (300+ watts) panel (See Graphics).  Included are assembly diagrams, a complete bill of materials, and measuring instructions for cutting the conduit & strut channel.
    ........
    The kit's
    DETAILED ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS AND DIAGRAMS
    assist you in buying only what your specific installation requires.
    DIMENSIONAL INSTRUCTIONS
    allow the determination of the (minimal) lengths of conduit and horizontal strut channel required.    (Note: The concrete foundation details are not addressed as this depends on soil conditions and wind zone.) There are also INSTALLATION TIPS provided that will extend the life of the components.
    .........
    ADDED BONUS:
    For a need of a VERY TALL MOUNT, a straightforward method is fully detailed to adapt the 1-1/2" E.M.T. support assembly as a "top part". This "top part' is securely bolted inside a larger diameter more wind stable tube or pipe.  (Examples: 2" or 3" schedule 40 pipe posts.)  The last ad picture shows an actual installation example that provides "walking clearance below" using a 2" schedule 40 galvanized rigid conduit (or pipe) post with the E.M.T. "top part".  (Your order will include COMPLETE details for this example.)
