Mounting solar on rubber roof
What's the best method in securing solar on a rubber roof trailer? This will be a flat install. Z-brackets are already ordered, but if there's something better... It is for my son-in-law's new to...

Thanks, those were the exact ones I'm been looking at. They are not neoprene though, but rubber. I got 3/8" plywood roof. They will fit. I just don't like the thought of drilling a 1/2" hole for a 1/4" screw.
You use 2 per bracket?
I don't think there's any issue with the styrofoam insulation compressing when torquing down the well nut.
McMaster also carries them.

They are actually made of Cloroprene rubber, which is neoprene.
I used two bolts per mounting bracket (angle aluminum) for my 190 watt panels on my other 5th wheel and one bolt per bracket for the 50 watt panels on my truck camper due to size.
McMaster is normally my first choice for hardware, but Grainger is right down the road if I need it quick.
