Solar panel mount

Description

Adjustable 3D-Printed Wall Mount for 6W Solar Panel

A custom-engineered mounting solution designed for small-scale solar panels, optimized for precise tilt adjustment. This mount is ideal for achieving the recommended 37° angle for maximum solar efficiency in your region.

Technical Specifications:

• Enhanced Stability Base: The mounting plate features 8 screw holes, ensuring a secure and distributed attachment to walls, poles, or flat surfaces.
• Material: 3D-printed using PETG, providing high rigidity and a clean finish for lightweight solar applications.
• Full Tilt Range: The articulated joint allows for a wide range of motion, making it easy to calibrate the panel’s position according to seasonal sun height.
• Single-Bolt Locking: The desired angle is held firmly in place by a single axial bolt through friction between the joint faces.

Installation Note:

Important: When tightening the axial bolt to lock the angle, please use caution. Avoid over-tightening to prevent structural damage or cracking of the printed plastic part.

Usage Recommendation:

Since the part is printed in PETG, it offers improved thermal resistance and is suitable for outdoor use. This material handles direct sunlight much better than PLA and won't soften under temperatures typical of a car interior or summer heat. However, to maximize its lifespan in extremely hot conditions, consider using light-colored filaments to minimize heat absorption.
