Description
S-5 SnoBracket TB — Trapezoidal IMP Snow Retention Bracket
The SnoBracket TB is a sheeting-only snow retention bracket made for trapezoidal insulated metal panels (IMPs). It creates a strong, watertight base for bar-style systems like ColorGard, using eight self-piercing screws into the rib crown and a factory-applied EPDM gasket for a reliable seal—no extra sealant required.
Key Benefits
Sheet-Only Attachment: Mounts to the panel rib (not the structure), preserving insulation and minimizing thermal bridging.
Watertight Seal: Factory EPDM gasket under the base eliminates messy field sealants.
High Holding Strength: Eight 1″ self-piercing fasteners (four per side) load the bracket in shear for greater capacity.
ColorGard Compatible: Pairs with ColorGard via VersaClip for proven, engineered snow retention.
Special Technology
Angled Side Flanges: Fasteners drive through pre-punched holes on both sides of the rib to maximize pull-out and shear resistance (use all eight to meet tested values).
Profile-Matched Geometry: TB size fits popular 1.22″ (31 mm) rib-top trapezoidal profiles (e.g., KingRib, HR3/HR5 and similar).
Warranty
Covered by S-5!’s Limited Lifetime Warranty, which protects against defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the roof on which the product is installed.
What this means in practice:
-
Coverage lasts as long as the roof remains in service
-
Applies when the product is installed correctly and used as intended
-
Remedy is repair or replacement of the defective product, at S-5!’s discretion
Best Uses
IMP & Trapezoidal Metal Roofs: Snow retention rows on cold-climate commercial and residential roofs where through-deck penetration is undesirable.
