The photovoltaic mounting bracket is made from natural rock, processed through high-temperature melting and continuous fiber drawing to form a high-performance composite material. Compared with traditional steel or aluminum structures, basalt fiber / Carbon Steel / Fibreglass brackets offer outstanding advantages in corrosion resistance, weight reduction, electrical insulation, and service life. They are especially suitable for harsh environments such as coastal regions, chemical zones, and saline-alkali lands.
Proper solar racking safely affixes solar panels to buildings, so your racking system must be compatible with your roof.
The essential components of a solar racking system include flashings, mounts, rails, and clamps.
Aesthetics, leak protection, wire management, and ease of installation all factor into racking system design.
How does solar racking work?
A solar racking system safely affixes solar panels to different surfaces, such as your roof or yard. Solar companies use racking products to hold equipment in place during an installation. Solar racking, also called solar mounting, can be made from FRP/GFRP/CFRP/BFRP, which works well for rooftop installations due to its strength and low weight compared to other materials.

Not all racking systems are the same, but, there are several components in most solar racking solutions:
Installing solar panels on a roof involves drilling holes susceptible to leaking if they're not adequately covered. Flashing is a material that stops water from leaking through your roof, usually as a thin, rectangular piece of FRP sheeting. An installer will insert flashing underneath shingles on a traditional asphalt tile roof. For roofs made with tile, metal, rubber, or wood, your installer will use specially designed flashings that fit the unique shape of your roofing material.
Solar panel systems are attached to your roof with mounts. Mounts are sometimes referred to as "feet" and are usually attached to your roof with a bolt through the flashing and into a rafter, securing your whole system. There are many varieties of mounts used in different racking systems. Solar installers need access to your attic or the underside of your roof during an initial site visit to ensure that your rafters are structurally intact and appropriately spaced to accommodate the mounts for your solar panel system.
Mounts hold up rails, the component of solar racking that your solar panels sit directly on top of. They are long FRP/GFRP/CFRP/BFRP tracks installed vertically or horizontally on your roof plane. An added benefit of rails is that they provide a clear space to run the wiring of your solar panel system, helping to reduce clutter and improve the safety and aesthetics of your installation.
To keep solar panels secured in place on racking, installers use clamps, which link solar modules to the rails below. Installers will often use both mid-clamps and end-clamps on an installation. Mid-clamps sit between solar panels and them in place on two sides, while end-clamps sit at the ends of the full system and are typically larger.
Excellent Corrosion Resistance:Resistant to acid, alkali, salt spray, and rust-free-ideal for highly corrosive environments such as coastal areas and industrial zones.
Lower Rigidity and Flexibility:Compared to steel, basalt fiber has a lower elastic modulus, meaning it is less rigid. Under heavy loads or strong winds, the structure may deform unless carefully engineered.
Limited Impact Resistance:While basalt fiber has high tensile strength, it is more brittle and susceptible to damage under sudden impacts or shear forces. Not ideal for environments with heavy vibrations or mechanical shocks.
Lower Market Familiarity & Incomplete Standards:Basalt fiber mounting systems are still emerging in the PV industry. Standards, certification protocols, and engineering guidelines are not yet as developed as those for traditional materials, requiring additional education and validation for widespread adoption.
The basalt fiber photovoltaic mounting system features a modular design with high-strength composite profiles and standard connectors, enabling fast bolt-based assembly. Compatible with various foundations (e.g., helical piles, concrete), it offers
excellent corrosion resistance and electrical insulation. PV panels are secured with specialized clamps, and the system
supports adjustable tilt angles, ensuring safe, efficient, and long-lasting performance in harsh environments.
Areas Of Product Application
Chemical Plants and Industrial Corrosive Zones:Suitable for environments with exposure to acidic or alkaline gases and liquids. Basalt fiber's chemical stability makes it an ideal choice for solar installations in chemical and heavy industrial areas.
Railway, Highway, and Slope Solar Projects:These projects require lightweight, seismic-resistant, and easy-to-install structures. Basalt fiber brackets meet these needs with their high strength-to-weight ratio and transport convenience.
Special Facilities and High-Security Electrical Zones:In sensitive areas such as airports, substations, radar stations, and defense zones, non-conductive and non-magnetic materials are essential. Basalt fiber meets these strict safety demands naturally.
