They need anti-seize lube on the threads. Also, I would not use power
tool/ impact drivers to tighten them, they not only can over torque
them, they spin too fast which causes the bolt threads to gall. Check
with S Flex, I believe they are using a coating on their hardware now
that alleviates the galling.

Aloha Bill,
They tend to freeze up out here in the middle of the pacific once they
sit for a few years.

James,
Glad you received at least one potential source for product, so far.
With all due respect, why do you need to replace the clips?
Any take away for others so as to not have this same issue?
Thanks,

Aloha Wrenches,
Does anybody know where I can get Haticon mid and end clips? The
lead time with my distributors here is not feasible with my
schedule.
I believe we need 40mm and 31 mm ends.
These are for old installs where the customer is re-roofing and
we need to remove and re-install the arrays. (Canadian Solar and
SolarWorld modules)
