SnoBar® RCB-3 Seam Compatibility

SnoBar Roof Clamp Bracket Mounted With RoofClamp RCT

The SnoBar® snow retention systems prevent rooftop avalanches that can damage gutters, HVAC units, cars, and expensive landscaping. The SnoBar® RCB-3 (3-inch Roof Clamp Mounting Bracket) fits more standing seam roof panel profiles (see clamp comparison) than our standard stainless steel bar clamp. The RoofClamp RCT features a cut-out that fits most T-seam and bulb-seam metal roofing panel profiles. The snow bars on the RCB-3 mounting brackets are securely attached to the standing seam panels using the patented aluminum RCT RoofClamp and three stainless steel cup-tipped set screws. The top-loading RCB-3 features fast installation. RCB-3 SnoBar® systems are compatible with most standing seam roof systems.

SnoBar RCB-3 Bracket Swivels 31 Degrees

The RCB-3 SnoBar mounting bracket features a swivel capability that makes it perfect for attaching the SnoBar snow retention system in areas such as hips and valleys. With a width of 3 inches, this bracket offers a full 31 degrees of swivel, enabling snow bars to be positioned strategically on roof areas where other snow bar systems may not fit. The SnoBar® mounting brackets also offer a practical solution for installing snow bars in a clean, straight line across the roof.

Install IceStoppers over Pedestrian Walkways and Parking Lots

IceStoppers serve as a crucial deterrent against the dangers of snow and ice sliding beneath the snow bars. IceStoppers are fixed to the snow rail and do not require feeding through the bar. This innovative snow guard solution for snow rails aims to protect individuals from potential injuries, which could, in severe cases, be life-threatening.

Clamp-on SnoBar is Safe for Standing Seam Metal Roofs

This product is perfect for standing seam metal roofs with its one-piece aluminum clamp featuring three non-penetrating cup-tipped set screws. The top-loading drop in the mounting bracket means there is no feeding the brackets through the bar like other snow rail systems. This standing seam-mounted SnoBar® rail design runs the length of the roof and ensures no risk of damaging roof seams with screws or holes.

Snow Bars With RCT RoofClamps Have Great Strength and Durability

SnoBar® features a Gatorshield®-coated bar that offers great strength and durability. This product also features three super strong "cup-tipped" stainless steel screws, not one or two slippery "round nose" screws. The cup-tipped set screws require significantly less torque, resulting in reduced panel dimpling. The SnoBar® and aluminum roof clamps are guaranteed as long as the roof.

SnoBar With The RCB-3 Mounting Brackets are Fast and Easy to Install

Exclusive low-torque aluminum roof clamps and aluminum top-loading brackets make this the fastest bar system to install in the industry. Fewer parts mean quicker installation times with less labor!

RCB-3 Mill SnoBar Submittal Documents

SnoBar® RCB-3 Important Disclaimer:

Do not install this snow retention system on isolated roof areas, just over doorways, stack pipes, chimneys, or partial roof sections. Upper roofs, if any, must not be allowed to shed snow and ice onto lower roof areas with snow bars. Before using this product on lower roof areas, all upper roof areas must have a snow retention system. Never install a snow bar system beyond where the end wall and overhang connect. Always obtain a manufacturer's quantity and spacing recommendation before purchasing and installing this product. The installer of this system must carefully follow the manufacturer's installation and spacing recommendations. Not following the manufacturer's spacing and installation recommendations may result in severe roof panel damage, personal injury, or even death.

The following warranty is made in lieu of all other warranties expressed or implied. Recommendations for proper use of the product are based on tests believed to be reliable. Any goods proven to be defective due to materials will be replaced, or purchase price refunded, but in no event shall the manufacturer be responsible for damages in excess of the purchase price. User shall determine the suitability of the product for its intended use and assumes all risks of its use or handling. 1. All loads incurred by the SnoBar will be transferred to the panels. Therefore, proper panel attachment to substrate/structure is necessary to prevent roof panels from sliding under snow load. New and existing structures must be evaluated to insure they can withstand retained snow loads. (In instances where there is an overhang at the eave edge, it is imperative to make sure that the overhang can hold the accumulated loading, otherwise the first row of SnoBar should occur at the bearing wall.) 2. It is not recommended to place the SnoBar System in isolated areas such as doorways, vents and partial roof areas. Please call for special design considerations in those areas. 3. Consider whether your roof system and/or substrates (felts or membranes) run the risk of ice damming with the addition of this type of system. 4. The SnoBar Clamp System requires the roof panel to be a min. of 24 GA. steel and have a seam height of at least 1". Clamp spacing cannot exceed 24"O.C. Clamp spacing varies dependign on seam spacing (12" o.c. up to 42" o.c). Clamps should be placed at every seam, so that the load is distributed evenly to every roof panel. It is not recommended to use a clamp type system when the roof uses a seperate seam cover or batten. 5. The U-Bracket System requires a purlin or structural support beneath it to mount to. 6. No snow retention system is capable of retaining 100% of snow and ice from falling off the roof. 7. Designer/Arhitect, Installer, or Owner of the project should have knowledge of the local snow loads, climatic conditions, roof slope, roof orientation, and roof design prior to installing SnoBar. 8. After considering the above factors, the determine lineal feet of SnoBar required is based on length of panels, roof slope, snow loading and areas needing protection from falling snow. (Call SnoBlox-SnoJax for clamp and bar loading values.) 9. It is the sole responsibility fo the Designer/Architect, Installer, or Owner to assess the suitability of using the SnoBar System based on the above design considerations. SnoBlox-SnoJax or any or its subsidiaries, or Riddell & Company, Inc and Action Manufacturing are under no liability if failure occurs from improper installation, improper set screw torque, improper panel attachment, improper roof system installation, improper use of the SnoBar system or under designed system placement of the SnoBar system. This is a special-order item, thus All Sales are Final. Sorry, no returns accepted.
SnoBar Snow Guards for Standing Seam Metal Roofs

About SnoBar-ColorBar

In 1992, Don Drew and Dick Riddell invented SnoBar, the original standing seam-mounted snow rail, earning a patent the following year. The first version, Sno Horse, was installed by Jim Huff at Denver International Airport in 1992. Inspired by office desk name plates, he ingeniously created an aluminum bar with a channel that could accept a strip of colored metal in its face. This design evolved into ColorBar, featuring rapid installation with patented drop-in clamps. Roof clamps, available in stainless steel or aluminum, secure the bar to standing seam metal roofs, making SnoBar the longest-standing snow rail system. There is a SnoBar and ColorBar snow retention system for every sloped roof prone to snow slides. Both snow rails can be powder-coated to match your metal roof.
