Kirk,

I think you'll probably have to use a stainless cable tie going all the way around the rail. The hanger clips you inquired about would probably be a poor choice on the sloped rails anyway. Another possibility, admittedly most costly and labor intensive, is to use something similar to these vinyl cushioned cable clamps <https://www.fastenal.com/products/details/0762883> that could be held with 3/4" tee bolts. I believe that the tee bolts are Sunmodo part B20015-004, it's not a catalog item but you can order them.

Thanks,
Unfortunately the HR300 rail which I'm using has no side channels, just 1/4" top and 3/8" bottom ones.

Kirk,

For the HR150 rail, Sunmodo has a channel clip, part A20252-001 or A20252-BK1 (black), that will hold the wires in the channel on the side of the rail. I don't see it in their recent catalog, but I have purchased them recently.

For the heavier rails, which are probably being used on the ground mount, there is a cable clip designed to attach to the 3/8" bolt slot, part A20162-001, unfortunately it was sized for the older Enphase cable and isn't much use for anything else.

Stainless cable ties ...

All,
I am installing a Sunmondo ground mount for for first time. They don't offer a wire clip to work on their rail. One which clips in the top channel and hangs off the side, that is. The top channel accommodates a 1/4-20 screw, but the rail is wider than any I've used before, thus i can't find a clip to span the channel to rail side and snap in.
Looked at Heyco and Hellermantyton lines but no luck. Any ideas?
