Use the Junior and Original Polycarbonate or Half-Carat and Original Metal Sno Gems for any metal roof systems, including standing seam and metal building systems, prefabricated roof systems, metal shingles, agricultural buildings/pole barns. Sno Gem has two non-penetrating installations using Tube Adhesive or 3M Adhesive Tape. Mechanical Fastening is also available.

Manufactured from UV stabilized polycarbonate, the unique design of these crystal-like guards suspends the field of snow until the snow and ice gradually melt under the sun's rays.

Before beginning always remember to completely clean roof area with isopropyl alcohol.
After installation, always seal perimeter of the positioned snow guard completely with SB-190 adhesive.
