SSRA2 Adjustable Roof Jack Adapters (Pair) – Non-Penetrating Walkboard Brackets
The SSRA2 Adjustable Roof Jack Adapter is the industry-leading solution for contractors who need to install walkboards on steep standing seam metal roofs without compromising the roof’s integrity.
⚠️ ADAPTERS ONLY: Requirements for Installation
This product includes a pair of SSRA2 Roof Jack Adapters. It requires existing SSRA1 Standing Seam Roof Anchors for mounting. If you do not yet own anchors, we highly recommend our Complete SSRA2 Roof Jack & Anchor Bundle for a turnkey solution.
Why Professional Roofers Choose SSRA2 Standing Seam Adapters
Working on a steep-pitch standing-seam roof shouldn't be a balancing act. The SSRA2 system transforms your anchors into a stable staging platform, allowing your crew to move faster and stay safer.
- Zero Roof Penetrations: Protect the building owner's warranty. The SSRA2 mounts to the SSRA1 anchor base, meaning no holes, no caulk, and no leaks.
- Universal Standing Seam Fit: Patented design fits over 500 seam profiles (95% of the market), including snap-lock, t-seams, bulb seams, trapezoidal, and mechanical seams.
- Fully Adjustable Leveling: Integrated stabilizer legs accommodate seam heights from 1" to 3", keeping your 2x10 walkboard perfectly level on steep inclines.
- Massive ROI: Why spend $2,000 on a single-use walkboard bracket? The SSRA2 offers professional stability at a fraction of the cost of traditional metal roof walkboard systems.
- USA Construction: Fabricated from 6061-T6 aluminum and stainless steel hardware for a rust-free life on the job site.
How to Install SSRA2 Adapters on Standing Seam Roofs
Follow these professional installation tips to ensure OSHA compliance and maximum platform stability:
- SSRA1 Anchor Placement: Secure two SSRA1 anchors to the seams (max 8 feet apart) and torque set-screws to 90 in/lbs.
- SSRA2 Roof Jack Adapter Mounting: Remove the SSRA1 D-rings and bolt the SSRA2 adapters directly to the anchor base using two top bolts.
- Pitch Adjustment: Loosen the side-leg adjustment bolts to level the walkboard mount. Ensure padded stabilizer feet are snug against the roof panel.
- Securing the Plank: Place your 2x10 lumber in the roof jacks and drive 2-inch #10 wood screws through the pre-drilled holes in the bracket face.

SSRA2 Adjustable Roof Jack Adapter FAQ
Does this product include the standing seam anchors?
No. This kit includes one pair (2) of SSRA2 Adjustable Adapters only. You must already own or separately purchase SSRA1 Seam Anchors to use this system. Each adapter requires one anchor base.
What is the maximum weight capacity for the SSRA2 walkboard system?
The SSRA2 system is laboratory-tested to support one worker per 8-foot to 10-foot walkboard, plus approximately 40 lbs of tools/materials. It is designed for staging and convenience, not as a primary fall arrest anchor.
How do I adjust the adapter for different roof pitches?
The SSRA2 features a multi-position adjustable bracket that can be leveled for roof pitches ranging from 6:12 to 12:12. Simply loosen the adjustment bolts, level the bracket, and retighten before placing your walkboard.
Will the stabilizer legs scratch my painted metal roof?
The SSRA2 is designed with padded stabilizer feet that rest against the roof panel. These feet provide lateral stability and prevent the bracket from rocking, all while protecting the panel's finish from scratches.
Can I use these adapters on 1.5" or 2" high seams?
Yes. The side stabilizer legs are fully height-adjustable. They can be raised or lowered to accommodate common standing seam heights from 1" up to 3" tall.
What are the most common mistakes to avoid when installing SSRA2 adapters?
To ensure a safe installation and avoid callbacks, avoid these three errors: 1. Failing to secure the plank: You must drive 2-inch #10 wood screws through the pre-drilled holes in the bracket into your 2x10 lumber to prevent the board from sliding. 2. Incorrect Spacing: Do not place adapters more than 8 feet apart. 3. Over-adjusting legs: The stabilizer feet should be snug to the roof to prevent wobble, but they should not be tightened so hard that they crush or dimple the roof panel.
