Description
S-5! SnoRod Connector Brass Coupling
The S-5! Brass Coupling joins two sections of SnoRod end-to-end for continuous snow-rail runs on copper standing seam metal roofs. Machined from solid brass, it maintains alignment and electrical/structural continuity while allowing thermal movement in the rail.
Key Benefits
Clean, Continuous Runs: Ensures end-to-end SnoRod alignment for straight, professional-looking rails.
Thermal Movement Friendly: Coupling design permits rod expansion/contraction to reduce stress.
Copper-Roof Compatible: Solid brass construction offers metallurgical compatibility on copper and lead-coated copper roofs.
Applications
SnoRail / SnoFence systems on copper standing seam roofs: Use to join 3/8″ SnoRod segments between brass end/intermediate seam clamps and optional SnoPost for two-rail fences.
Installation
Slide the Brass Coupling over one 3/8″ SnoRod, insert the adjoining SnoRod, and tighten per system instructions. Place couplings where needed along the run, coordinating with clamp spacing (typ. ≤24″ between clamps; closer in high-snow zones).
Special Technology
SnoRod Coupling Geometry: Purpose-built connector maintains rod continuity without impeding thermal movement, supporting long, straight rail sections.
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
Historic & Premium Copper Roofs: Snow retention on traditional double-fold copper standing seam profiles where brass components are preferred.
