Common questions
What does the Somfy 9206041 soft clip drive do?
It is the drive wheel that fits on the motor end and locks into a 2.5" (60mm) round tube, passing the motor's torque to the roller. Somfy describes it as an LT50 wheel for a 63 x 1.5 tube with a soft clip.
Which motors does this drive fit?
It suits Somfy 50mm-class (500 Series / LT50) motors, including the LT50, LT50 CMO, Altus RTS, Sonesse 50 and DMI5 ranges. Somfy rates the drive for up to 100 Nm of torque.
What else do I need to mount the motor in the tube?
Pair it with the matching crown, such as the LT50 2.5" Crown (9707026), for a concentric motor-to-tube fit. Somfy notes that no specific crown is needed when the drive is used with a 60 mm motor.
How does the soft clip version compare with other LT50 drives?
The soft clip holds the drive on the motor and eases assembly. We also carry the LT50 2.5" Hard Clip Drive (9206019) and, for a 2" tube, the LT50 2" Soft Clip Drive (9206089).
What warranty does the drive carry?
Somfy backs part 9206041 with a 5-year warranty. It is a genuine Somfy drive for round-tube installs such as rolling shutters and awnings, matched to the tube it was designed for.
