Application

Typical uses include:

  • Solar panels.
  • Roof plant supports.
  • Timber decking.
  • Roof area zoning.
  • Roof services supports.
  • Roof walkways.


Suitable for use with the following roof covering types:

  • Built-up and hot melt roofing systems.
  • Ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) roofing membrane.
  • Liquid applied roof coatings.
  • Polyisobutylene (PIB) roofing membrane.
  • Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) roofing membrane.
  • Styrene butadiene styrene (SBS) and atactic polypropylene (APP) modified bitumen membranes.
  • Thermoplastic polyethylene (TPE) roofing membrane.
  • Thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) roofing membrane.

Description

ROOFTRAK® IFP-GR integrated fixing point system for use in green and inverted roof constructions where the weathering membrane is beneath the green roof build up or insulation.


Features and benefits:

  • Can be used where the membrane is laid directly over the roof deck or in green roofs where the insulation is under the membrane.
  • Comprised of a variable height post on a fixing plate to bring the fixing point above the level of the roof build up, with two M10 x 20 fixing threads.
  • To waterproof the post the IFP is factory fitted with an appropriate flange material to enable it to be weathered or sealed to the main roof area weathering which extends up the post.

Manufacturer guidance

Select material for weathering flange from the list below, or consult manufacturer and insert appropriate details.

Fixing plate

250 x 250 x 3 mm.

Guidance for specification option:

Inverted roof.

300 x 300 x 3 mm.

Guidance for specification option:

Warm roof.

Manufacturer guidance

Mild steel fixing plate, polyester powder coat (PPC) finish.

Accessories

None.

Direct fixings.

Guidance for specification option:

Direct fixing from plate to structural substrate.


  • Material: Corrosion resistant steel or stainless steel.
  • Size: 30–300 mm.
  • Suitable for timber, steel deck and concrete substrates.
  • Very high uplift resistance values: Maximum: 5 kN.
  • Low profile head.
  • TX25 drive.

Thermally broken fixings.

Guidance for specification option:

Two part fixing comprising a polypropylene tube washer and fixing screw. Creates thermal break between IFP plate and roof structure substrate. Only required for warm roof constructions.


  • Material: Polypropylene tube washer and corrosion resistant steel or stainless steel screw.
  • Size: 25–250 mm.
  • Suitable for timber, steel deck and concrete substrates.
  • Good uplift resistance values: Maximum: 4.1 kN.
  • Low profile head.
  • TX25 drive.

10 mm shim, IFP-SH.

Guidance for specification option:

Packing shim designed to fit over the anchor point where multiple anchor points need to be level. Can be used in multiples to achieve greater packing dimensions. Note that a longer bolt will be required to secure them to the anchor points: care should be taken in selecting the bolt length as the anchor points are blind threaded holes.


  • Material: High-density polyethylene (HDPE).
  • Size: Diameter: 76 mm; thickness: 10 mm.
  • Typical uses: Solar panel installations; roof walkway supports; signage supports; roof plant supports.

Cap nut, IFP-CN.

Guidance for specification option:

Low profile fixing designed specifically for use with the IFP. Allows the use of M10 studding for where the IFP requires bolting to the structure. The rounded low profile cap nut will not damage the roofing membrane that sits over it.


  • Material: A2 grade stainless steel.
  • Size: Head diameter: 25 mm; shank (diameter x length): 14 x 20 mm; internal thread: M10.
  • Typical uses: for using M10 studding to secure the IFP to the building structure by means of bolts or toggles.
