The invention discloses a crimping type roof lightning protection belt and an installation method thereof, and relates to the technical field of building roof lightning protection belt construction. At present, hot galvanizing round steel should be firstly selected for a conventional lightning strip, the connection mode is welding, the welding position needs to be coated with anti-corrosion paint,raw material pieces are extremely prone to corrosion, and the electrical access effect becomes worse and worse. The provided lightning protection belt comprises support rods made of stainless steel composite materials, connecting rods, double-hole connecting plates, short-needle lightning arresters and two-way to five-way crimping joints. The supporting rods and the connecting rods are connectedthrough the crimping joints in a crimping manner, so the lightning protection belt supported by parapet walls and the roof is formed. Parapet wall supporting rods are reinforced and protected throughprotective sleeves, roof supporting rods are reinforced and supported through finished product supports, parapet wall downleads are connected with the short-needle lightning arresters and the connecting rods through the double-hole connecting plates and the three-way crimping joints, and the supporting rods are fixed in steel bar embedding holes of the parapet wall and the roof. The installation operation is simple, the connection is firm, the electrical path stability of the lightning protection belt can be effectively improved, and the lightning protection effect is good.
