Quickbolt makes a similar product to the nano. I've used it several
times. The last time when I was trying to attach to oak beam and had no
experience with how difficult that was. They work well, but no greater
than 36" spacing.

Very timely post for me, Matt. Thanks.
I was just asked to bid a roof mount with SIP panels. My first
thought is to just say no. I am very hesitant to rely on the pull out
strength of screws in OSB.
I will be watching this thread.
Shine On!

Hi All,
I've run into a roof-mounted job where the roof is built-up with
the following:
Comp shingle
Plywood
Foam board
T&G (roof deck, but also interior ceiling)
The beams that hold the t&g up are wide-spaced and not convenient
for fastening the full extent of the array.
This being the case, I was considering other fastening options and
am writing to pick the collective brain of the Wrenches to see how
others have addressed similar situations.
One thought I had was to use the PLP Easy Mounting Foot and I'd be
glad for any opinions on that or another solution.
-Matt
