Esdec FlatFix Fusion Base Plate

£1.38

The Esdec FlatFix Fusion Base Plate provides a stable, load-bearing platform for specialised FlatFix Fusion installations. Used with the Base Plate Bracket, it enables mechanical anchoring or enhanced load distribution for solar panels on challenging roofs.

Supports direct roof fixing or engineered load distribution.
Essential for hybrid or fully fixed FlatFix Fusion systems.
Connects via the dedicated Base Plate Bracket component.

Why We Recommend This Product: It’s the genuine Esdec solution for hybrid, fixed, or specially engineered flat roof arrays where additional anchoring or structural support is required.

Use the Esdec Enstall Calculator or consult project engineering to confirm if Base Plates are specified for your design.

Esdec FlatFix Fusion Base Plate – Structural Support for Hybrid and Fixed Flat Roof Solar Installations

The Esdec FlatFix Fusion Base Plate is a specialised component for flat roof solar projects requiring mechanical anchoring, enhanced load spreading, or non-standard roof integration. Unlike the standard ballasted approach, this plate forms part of hybrid or fully fixed systems where structural engineers specify additional anchoring points. Used in conjunction with the FlatFix Fusion Base Plate Bracket, it ensures a safe, durable foundation for your solar array and supports reliable long-term performance in all weather conditions.

Engineered for Hybrid and Fixed Roof Applications

While most FlatFix Fusion systems rely purely on ballast, certain flat roofs—such as lightweight structures, high-wind zones, or uneven load-bearing roofs—require additional anchoring. This Base Plate allows installers to achieve that securely:

Direct Mechanical Anchorage: The pre-drilled design allows the plate to be mechanically fixed to the underlying roof structure when required.
Hybrid System Use: Combines with ballast to reduce total system weight while ensuring resistance to wind uplift.
Load Distribution: Expands the contact area beneath base units, reducing point pressure on sensitive roofing membranes.
Precision Fit: Interfaces directly with the Low Base or High Base through the Base Plate Bracket for seamless integration.

Essential for Structural and Safety Compliance

When a design calls for partial or full fixing, the Base Plate provides the approved Esdec solution. It’s commonly specified by consulting engineers in cases involving high parapet exposure, building height, or reduced ballast allowances. Using this component ensures that the system complies with both Esdec’s engineering standards and local structural safety requirements.

Durable Construction for Demanding Roof Conditions

Manufactured from high-strength, corrosion-resistant metal (typically aluminium or galvanised steel, confirm via datasheet), the FlatFix Fusion Base Plate is designed for long service life in exposed environments. It efficiently transfers forces from the array into the roof’s supporting structure while maintaining weather resistance and dimensional stability.

System Integration and Installation

This Base Plate is not a standalone part—it must be paired with the FlatFix Fusion Base Plate Bracket, which locks into the main system framework through the Base Profiles. The bracket ensures structural continuity and uniform load transfer across the array.

For engineered flat roof designs where ballast alone cannot achieve compliance, this Base Plate is indispensable. We recommend it because:

Engineering Flexibility: Enables hybrid and fully fixed Esdec installations.
Load Control: Distributes forces safely to maintain roof integrity.
System Certified: Designed and approved by Esdec for use within the FlatFix Fusion range.
Longevity: Made from premium, weather-resistant metals for decades of reliability.
