Key Features & Design

• Material Quality: Precision-machined from high tensile, aircraft-quality aluminum, ensuring superior strength and longevity.
• Corrosion-Resistant Hardware: All related hardware, including the clamps, is crafted from non-ferrous stainless steel. This choice of material guarantees enduring performance and resistance to corrosion.
• Double-Clamp Design: Featuring an innovative double-clamp design, when used with S-5!'s standard clamps, offers unprecedented holding strength. This design ensures the system remains securely in place even under heavy snow loads.
• NEX® 2.0 Compatibility: The bracket is designed to work seamlessly with the ultra-strong NEX® 2.0 crossmember. This compatibility makes the X-Gard 1.0 the most heavy-duty, one-pipe system available on the market, suitable for both light and heavy-duty applications.
• Mechanical Attachment: The bracket is attached mechanically using patented round-point setscrews. This method grips the metal roof seam securely, ensuring stability without penetrating the roof or damaging its protective finishes.
• Year-Round Installation: X-Gard 1.0 can be easily retrofitted to existing roofs or incorporated into new construction designs, offering flexibility in installation throughout the year on almost any metal roof profile.
• Maximum Load/Span Conditions: Designed for maximum load/span conditions, X-Gard 1.0 is an ideal solution for areas prone to heavy snowfall. It efficiently manages snow retention, safeguarding landscapes, adjacent roofs, gutters, vehicles, and pedestrians.
• Light to Heavy-Duty Applications: Depending on the requirement, fewer anchorage points are needed for light-duty applications, making it a versatile choice for various settings.
• End Cap Compatibility: The X-Gard endcap fits snugly over the end of the X-Gard pipe to keep vermin, rain and debris out of the system.

Applications and Use: The X-Gard™ 1.0 Bracket is designed to combat snow hazards and protect property, people, and adjacent structures. It’s a robust component for metal roofing systems in regions with significant snowfall.
