Panel Clips

About Rotech's Heavy Duty Panel Clips

Our range of zinc plated heavy duty cleats are made of quality steel for a strong and durable panel clip.

You have two types of panel clip shapes to choose from: L shaped clips and C shaped clips. These two options enable you to create a variety of clip combinations for your needs. Just slide a 16mm drop pin through the holes and your panels will be secure.

Each shape has a 40mm wide and 50mm wide options. The 40mm wide clips are a perfect fit for 40mm RHS, without any overhang. The 40mm panel clips can also be used on a 50mm RHS if you want to weld onto the flat rather than the corner of your RHS. The 50mm is perfect if you want a clip to be flush with the sides of your 50mm RHS.

Each panel clip comes with a backing plate, making it easy to weld.

Farmers and manufactures have their own method and combinations when installing cleats onto their yard panels. Here are two methods you can use when installing panel clips.

C-Clip To L-Clip Setup

One set up is to have the L-clip sit in between the C-clip. For example:

• On the right side install two C-clips. Place one 200mm from the top of the panel and one 200mm from the bottom of the panel.
• On the left side install two L-clips. Plan one 250mm from top of the panel and one 250mm from the bottom of the panel.

This setup will result in the left hand side L-clips fitting in the space within the C-clips when two panels are joined together. Just drop a 16mm pin through the three holes of the two clips to secure the two panels.

C-Clip To C-Clip Setup

A premium setup would have two sets of C-clips intersecting each other. For example

• On the right side install two C-clips. Place one 200mm from the top of the panel and one 200mm from the bottom of the panel.
• On the left side install another two C-clips. Plan one 250mm from top of the panel and one 250mm from the bottom of the panel.

This setup will result in the left hand side C-clips fitting in the space within the right C-clips when two panels are joined together. Because one set of C-clips is lower than the other, there is space for two clips to join. Just drop a 16mm pin through the four holes of the two clips to secure the two panels.

This setup is a lot more secure, and will result is less movement between two panels. Less movement results in less noise which means your animals are less likely to be spooked.
