S5! Solid Round Rod for SnoRail/SnoFence SnoRod 72" Aluminum 

The S5 SnoRod (72″ aluminum) is a solid round rod used as the crossmember in fence-style snow retention on metal roofs. Inserted through compatible rod clamps above the panel seams, it forms the continuous rail in SnoRail and the upper/lower rails in two-row SnoFence assemblies. Aluminum couplings are available to join segments and build longer runs. 

Key Benefits

Lightweight & Strong: Solid aluminum rod provides excellent strength with low roof-top weight and easy handling. 

System Compatible: Designed for S5 snow-retention assemblies; passes through the rod clamps and can be “fixed” against lateral migration with designated end clamps.

Modular Lengths: Use aluminum couplings to extend rails or field-cut to fit exact module bays. 

All-Weather Durability: Non-ferrous aluminum resists corrosion in harsh freeze-thaw and wet conditions.

Special Technology

Rod-Through-Clamp Architecture: The rod slides through dedicated clamps mounted at the seams; a second rod row can be elevated with posts for SnoFence installations.

Material Options: Rods are commonly offered in aluminum, stainless, or brass for project-specific aesthetics and environments. 

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

Standing-Seam Metal Roofs: Continuous snow-rail lines to help retain and control seasonal snow loads.

High-Snow Regions: Use as one or two rows (with posts) to reduce sliding snow and protect eaves, walkways, and landscaping.
