Pipe band clamp for air-termination rods, for fastening and simultaneous lightning current-carrying contact of the air-termination rod, e.g. on metal substructures of PV systems (square hollow profile), typically built on steel skeleton or reinforced concrete structures. Two pipe band clamps must be mounted on each air-termination rod. When using two pipe band clamps, the mechanical strength and lightning current-carrying capacity of 100 kA (10/350 s) are ensured. When mounting on pipes, the pressure plate (flat plate angled twice) must be removed.
