INSTALLATION GUIDE

SLR-211-0459 3 Inch Slotted L-Bracket

SIMPLE SEAL

SimpleSeal was designed for installation on most metal roofs. The system utilizes a cone-shaped EPDM rubber bushing that fits into the countersink found on the underside of any EcoFasten compression bracket. When fastened to the roof, engaging a purlin or rafter, the SimpleSeal bushing is compressed inside the bracket, creating a watertight seal.

FEATURES

• Patented watertight technology
• Minimal components
• Compatible with a variety of EcoFasten compression brackets

SYSTEM COMPONENTS

1. 5/16″ LAG BOLT (AVAILABLE IN 3” AND 4”)
2. L-FOOT SCL-101 ML 3″ (OTHER OPTIONS AVAILABLE)
3. 5/16″ EPDM BONDED WASHER
4. SIMPLE SEAL EPDM BUSHING

INSTALLING SIMPLICIAL

Pre-install the cone-shaped rubber SimpleSeal EPDM bushing into an EcoFasten compression bracket of your choice prior to installation by inserting the tip of the cone into the corresponding shape at the bottom of the compression bracket. The ridge around the tip of the cone will hold the bushing in place until the bracket is installed.
Place the compression bracket on the roof surface above a supporting structural component, ensuring that the bushing sits flat against the roof surface. SimpleSeal is not designed to be installed on any ridge or corrugation of the metal roof surface.
Thread the 5/16″ EPDM bonded sealing washer onto the 5/16″ lag bolt and insert the bolt into the top of the SimpleSeal EPDM bushing.
Tighten the fastener until the bracket is pulled down snugly to the roof surface. The tension required will vary with the project roof deck, age, and type. Be sure not to over-tighten the fasteners and strip the threads.
