SB5001 Roof Snow Shovel with Aluminum and Oxford Cloth Chute
The SB5001 is a roof snow shovel built around an aluminum and oxford cloth construction that slides snow down off the roof rather than dragging it in loose armfuls. It is aimed at property maintenance buyers, distributors and retailers serving yards, parks and buildings where roof snow has to be cleared without putting someone on the roof. A steel head cuts into settled snow, plastic wheels of 7.5cm diameter run the head along the roof surface, and the oxford cloth section guides the released snow away. Net weight is 2.7kg and the tube length is 6300mm.
- 6300mm reach lets the operator work a roof from the ground instead of setting a ladder on frozen ground
- 7.5cm plastic wheels ride the head over the roof surface so the steel edge does not sit hard against the covering
- Steel head cuts into settled and crusted snow that a plastic blade slides over
- Oxford cloth section guides released snow clear instead of dropping it straight onto the operator
- 2.7kg net weight is light enough to hold at full extension through a working session
- Aluminum tube resists the corrosion that an untreated steel pole suffers through repeated wet winters

Application Scenarios
- Yard and park maintenance crews clearing shelters, sheds and canopy roofs
- Property managers reducing roof snow load across a building portfolio
- Facility staff clearing low outbuilding roofs after a heavy fall
- Homeowners removing snow build up before a thaw and refreeze creates ice dams
- Retail chains stocking a winter tool range in snow belt regions
Who It Is For
- Importers and distributors stocking manual snow tools for the winter season
- Parks, grounds and yard maintenance departments
- Property and facility management companies
- Hardware and DIY retail chains
- Private label and promotional buyers
Problems It Solves
- Getting a person onto a snow covered roof is the highest risk part of winter building maintenance
- Snow left to thaw and refreeze forms ice dams that drive water back under the roof covering
- A bare steel edge dragged across a roof scratches shingles and dents panels, so the wheels hold it off the surface
- Heavy long handled tools cannot be controlled at full extension for more than a few minutes
- Steel poles rust through after a season or two of wet use and come back as complaints

How It Compares
Against Ladder and hand shovel
Clearing from a ladder or from the roof itself is where winter maintenance injuries happen. The 6300mm length keeps the operator on the ground for the same work.
Against Polycarbonate bladed roof rake
A plastic blade slides over crusted snow. The steel head cuts in, and the plastic wheels keep that steel edge off the roof covering.
Against Rigid roof scraper without a chute
A plain scraper drops the released snow straight down onto the operator. The oxford cloth section guides it away from the working position.
Use Guide
- Set the working position out of the fall line before the first pull
- Let the wheels carry the head so the steel edge is not pressed into the roof covering
- Work in strips from the roof edge upwards rather than reaching for the ridge first
- Check for overhead power lines and keep the aluminum tube well clear of them
- Dry the tube, head and cloth fully and store under cover at the end of the season
