Description
S-5! now Migration Clip for X-Gard Pipe Systems X-Clip III
The X-Clip III is an aluminum clip with an integrated rubber foot that sits behind the NEX 2.0 pipe on X-Gard rail/pipe snow retention systems. It helps prevent snow and ice from creeping beneath the crossmember on tall standing seam panels. (Use on seams from 2″ to 3″ high; do not use on 3″ horizontal seams.)
Key Benefits
Controls Under-Slide: Reduces snow/ice migration beneath the X-Gard crossmember for cleaner eave management.
Roof-Friendly Foot: Integrated rubber foot helps protect the panel finish where the clip bears on the flat.
Tall-Seam Ready: Sized specifically for standing seam heights from 2″ up to 3″.
Special Technology
NEX 2.0 Interface: Rests on the back of the NEX 2.0 pipe and extends down to the panel flat for effective blocking.
System-Tuned Accessory: Optional add-on for X-Gard 1.0 or 2.0 to enhance performance on higher seams.
