The Schletter End Clamp Rapid16 secures the outer edge of a module row on frames 30-40mm thick, completing the Rapid16 click-in clamp family used across Schletter module-bearing rail systems. Like the mid clamp, it clicks into the rail's 8mm KlickNut channel and locks down with a single pre-assembled Torx screw.
For this lower frame-height end clamp, the click-in component is fixed rather than rotating, due to its geometry — so orientation should be confirmed at layout stage. An integrated grounding pin maintains electrical continuity with the array without a separate earth cable at each fixing point.

Key Features
Click-In Fitting
Clicks directly into the 8mm KlickNut channel of Schletter module-bearing rails, holding position before final tightening — no separate bracket required.
Integrated Grounding Pin
A grounding pin is built into the clamp, biting into the module frame to maintain equipotential bonding without extra earthing hardware at row ends.
Minimum Edge Insertion
Manufacturer guidance specifies inserting end clamps at least 10mm from the end of the rail profile to maintain full holding strength.
Pre-Assembled Torx Screw
Supplied with an M8 Torx (T40) screw with under-head serration and anti-friction coating pre-fitted into the clamp body.
Corrosion-Resistant Finish
Manufactured from anodised aluminium, available in natural silver or black anodised finish to suit the module frame colour.
General Building Approval
Covered under German general building approval Z-14.4-631, supporting structural documentation for UK installations.

Click-In Orientation
Fixed (non-rotating) — confirm module orientation before install
Can this end clamp be rotated for landscape or portrait mounting?
No — on this 30-40mm frame-height end clamp, the click-in component is fixed due to its geometry and does not rotate. Confirm your module orientation before installation, as this differs from the mid clamp in the same range, which does rotate.
How close to the edge of the rail can I fit this clamp?
Schletter's installation guidance specifies a minimum of 10mm clearance from the end of the rail profile to the end clamp, to maintain the intended holding strength.
Is a separate earth cable needed at the end of each module row?
No. The clamp includes an integrated grounding pin that bites into the module frame as it is tightened, maintaining equipotential bonding without an additional earthing strap at that position.
What tool is needed to install this clamp?
A T40 Torx driver or bit. The M8 screw is pre-assembled into the clamp body before it reaches site.
Is this compatible with the Mid Clamp Rapid16 30-40mm on the same array?
Yes. Both are part of the same Rapid16 family and share the same rail interface, module frame range and fixing screw, so they are used together on a single row — end clamps at the row ends, mid clamps between adjacent modules.
