Surebond SB-190

The adhesive must fully cure for 28 days or 672 hours at 50 degrees (F) or higher for a successful installation. When the temperature is below 40 degrees Fahrenheit, the curing process is delayed until the temperature is at least 50 degrees Fahrenheit. If temperatures dip below 50 degrees, it will not harm the curing process, but simple pause it until the temperature climbs above 50 degrees. This can, however, increase the curing time for the adhesive. For a complete cure, spring and summer are the optimum times to install adhesive-mounted snow guards.

To match our clear polycarbonate snow guards, we only offer the Surebond SB-190 in clear. Clear Surebond SB-190 dries to a translucent appearance.

SnoBlox-Snojax pioneered the use of Surebond SB-190 for attaching polycarbonate snow guards back in 1986. Since this time, it has become the industry standard. Surebond Everseal is a versatile, high-strength, hard-setting, adhesive, boasting superior 2,000 PSI tensile strength and excellent impact resistance. This one-part glue offers easy application that creates a durable bond which will not become brittle and offers a long service life. Additionally, it is water and weather proof. The translucent finish minimizes its appearance when installed.

About 10 of our larger polycarbonate snow guards and 20–25 of our smaller models can be attached with the Surebond SB–190 adhesive. Please be aware that depending on the user's application, this could vary.

The least detrimental method of attaching a snow guard to your metal roof is with adhesive. Occasionally, when a region receives unusually severe winter weather, snow guards that are mounted with Surebond SB-190 could release from the roof without damaging the panels or causing roof leaks. It is simple to re-install the snow guards back in place by by cleaning the panel with soap and water, allowing it to thoroughly dry, then using the SureBond SB-190 adhesive to re-apply. The newly applied Everseal will form a permanent bond with the old glue left behind and cure together forming a strong attachment. Because it can maintain the water tightness of their metal roofs, customers love this feature.
