Seems to be a great deal of consern with the solar panel install. There are many ways to skin a cat, in the end you have a skinned cat. I didn't see the wall thickness on the tubing, but judgeing by the peices you removed it is probably 1/4" at least. The panel rests on the tower. It doesn't hang under or use the bolts for support. They just keep the panel from blowing or sliding off. Fifty years of experience in marine maintainance and 40 years as a machinist says your instalation is adiquate. Would I have done it that way? No. I prefer skinning that cat another way. I avoid holes in aluminum when ever possible. When at the welder I would have had pads welded on. In my experience, silicon sealer is the product that will protect against galvinic reaction between stainless and aluminum the longest. Great videos, you two. See you in the next one.

Looks great the only thing I can add is that you should counter sink your holes even though you are mounting a flat plate, This gives more area for the butyl tape to fill in and seal. Also I would have used Tefgel on the stainless bolts you used to mount the solar panels.

Nice job - Just one thing I would have done differently was to drill straight through the tubing for the solar panel. I wouldn't trust the few threads to hold up with the pounding its going to take. Keep that in mind later on maybe just do 1 on each bracket for safety.
@tombulger
6 жыл бұрын
Being a machinist by trade for over 27 years I have to fully agree with Demo Joe on this one. The amount of full thread contact may be only 1 to 1 1/2 threads in the pipe. This is certainly not enough contact to keep the bolts tight. If you happen to over torque the bolts putting them in you may have even stripped the threads in the pipe and not really know that you have. I agree that you should drill at least one hole on each pad and bolt them through the pipe with a self locking nut along with a locking lock washer to ensure that the nuts don't back off especially with all the rocking and rolling that goes on while you are sailing. Better to be safe rather them sorry. I usually don't comment to much but just thought I would add my two cents worth. Love you content in the videos and have to say that your drone shots are second to none here in KZitem land. Looking forward to your next one. Tom.Nova Scotia Canada

Demo Joe is spot on. Given the pounding at sea, those tapped holes won’t hold over time, at least two of those four hole sets should be through holes. Great work on the tower restoration!

Well with respect I disagree, this should be fine. I've been doing the same for years. The alternative is to use a pop rivet but that makes removal more complicated. The extra holes from thru bolting would weaken the tube and if they can get way without this then do much the better. If they do come loose thru bolting is still an option. Remember KISS is good for less wt. every bit counts. Corrosion with the SS/Alum is my biggest concern that will cause paint peeling. Cheers Warren
