Products / SnoBar

SnoBar is a snow rail system for standing seam metal roofs: a square galvanized steel bar mounted on patented stainless steel drop-in seam clamps that attach without penetrating the roof, with screw-down ColorBrackets for mechanically fastened roofs and optional screw-fastened IceStoppers to keep ice from sliding under the bar. The product page sells it as 6 foot kits with clamps, Tek screws and end caps, states the bar's Gatorshield coating carries 50 percent more galvanizing than other tubing, and says the galvanized SnoBar has a lifetime guarantee; the linked Limited Lifetime Warranty covers parts for the lifetime of the roof they are attached to, while the page's general warranty text limits the remedy to replacement or refund of defective goods. The page credits the system's 1992 invention to Don Drew and Dick Riddell as the first patented standing seam snow rail clamp; the 2019 warranty document names Action Manufacturing SnoBar, LLC as manufacturer and IceBlox, Inc. as master distributor, while the About page states IceBlox acquired Action Manufacturing's assets in 2016.
