IDP-113 ROOF CLIP
INSTALLATION MANUAL
DESCRIPTION
The IDP-113 Roof Clip can be used to secure HeatTapePro–and various other brands of self-regulating heat cable–to a variety of roofing materials including asphalt shingle roofs, standing seam metal roofs and rubber membrane roofs. Seal nails or screws used with this clip with MKS-1022-1 butyl pads (preferred) or caulk with appropriate material depending on substrate (i.e., asphalt shingle, metal, etc.).
TOOLS REQUIRED
- Hammer
- Putty Knife
- Pliers
- Caulk Gun (if MKS-1022-1 butyl pads are not being used)
SUPPLIES REQUIRED
- Butyl pads
- Methacrylate Adhesive (Metal Surfaces )
- Bonding Adhesive (Rubber membrane roofs)
- Silicone (Asphalt shingle roofs)
INSTALLING CLIPS ON ASPHALT SHINGLES
OTHER METHODS
IDP-113 Heat Cable Roof Clips may be installed in many orientations on the
roof. They may need to be nailed or screwed on top of the roofing under
certain circumstances, such as at the bottom of a tracing pattern, Fig 1.
As an alternate to using butyl pads, apply a large dot of silicone to the
roof, Fig. 2.
OTHER INSTALLATION DETAILS 
ASPHALT ROOF INSTALLATIONS
Point ‘A’, the width between each tracing pattern should be 24” for most
standard heating cable installations. Point ‘B’ is the tracing pattern height,
which changes project to project depending on the eave depth. Extra clips may
be used as necessary in areas where extra stress may be put on the heat cable
system. Refer to heat cable manufacturers installation instructions for
specifics. 
METAL ROOF INSTALLATIONS
The IDP-113 Roof Clip can be installed on metal roofs using methacrylate
adhesives. Clean the area on the metal thoroughly before installing the clip
to ensure a good adhesive bond. Place clip on the prepared surface and press
down until the adhesive flows through the holes. Do not trim back the adhesive
as the excess flow through helps hold the clip. Allow adhesive to cure per
manufacturer’s specifications before installing heating cable.
ADDITIONAL INSTALLATION DETAILS
