The SnoCleat PBR is an all-aluminum screw-down pad-style snow guard specially designed for mechanically fastened PBR or R panels.
This aluminum snow guard fits screw-down metal roofing panels with at least 1 1/2 inches between the minor ribs.
Customers typically refer to these metal panels as Exposed Fastener Metal Roof Panels, PBR, AG, or R-Panels. The six predrilled holes allow for easy fastening of snow stops to the purlin through the panel. This device is mounted utilizing a minimum of three #14 roofing screws with neoprene washers. For enhanced holding strength, consider using additional fasteners in the remaining holes. The additional screws will provide extra stability and support, ensuring the snow guard remains secure under varying conditions and loads. A foam gasket is supplied for installation between the guard and the panel, eliminating the need for glue or liquid sealant. The SnoCleat PBR features a large 4-inch-wide face, fastened with two Tek-screws.
The face of the guard accepts an optional 4-inch-wide by 2-inch-tall color strip to match your roof.
The SnoCleat PBR is the only all-aluminum screw-down snow guard that can seamlessly blend in with your roof by adding a ColorStrip in the face of the guard. Customers usually purchase the ColorStrips from the panel manufacturer or cut 2-inch by 4-inch pieces from leftover panel scraps. The SnoCleat PBR is also available for powder coating to match the metal roof panel for an additional charge.

SnoCleat PBR Special Considerations
