The Tuscan Mechanical BS416 Soil range is a coupling-jointed cast iron soil and waste system, dimensionally compatible with BS 416 pipework. Plain-ended pipes and fittings are joined with bolted ductile iron couplings, so there are no caulked or sealed sockets. A stack goes together quickly, and individual fittings can be taken out later without disturbing the rest of the run. Conversion couplings join it to existing socketed LCC pipe, which makes it a practical choice for repairs and extensions to older stacks as well as new work.
An 87.5° single branch with a smaller inlet than the main run, for example 100mm × 50mm. It brings a smaller pipe into the stack or drain without a separate taper.
Available in 4 sizes, from 70mm × 50mm to 150mm × 100mm. Nominal weights run from 1.5 kg (70mm × 50mm) to 6.5 kg (150mm × 100mm).
Typical use: Waste and branch connections into a larger stack or drain.
| Size | Product code | Nominal weight |
|---|---|---|
| 70mm × 50mm | MS3020 | 1.5 kg |
| 100mm × 50mm | MS4020 | 2.2 kg |
| 100mm × 70mm | MS4021 | 2.5 kg |
| 150mm × 100mm | MS6030 | 6.5 kg |
Often used with: 87.5° Single Equal Branch, Double Spigot Pipe 3m, Ductile Iron Coupling with Continuity, Taper Pipe.

It is available in 70mm × 50mm (MS3020), 100mm × 50mm (MS4020), 100mm × 70mm (MS4021), 150mm × 100mm (MS6030).
The first figure is the main run and the second is the branch. A 100mm × 50mm branch fits a 100mm stack and takes a 50mm branch pipe.
The 87.5° branch is the standard choice for bringing a horizontal branch pipe into a vertical stack. The branch pipe is laid to a slight fall, so the junction sits just short of a right angle.

The H542A measures 240mm wide x 240mm deep x 290mm high, making it well suited to a compact square profile suited to smaller Georgian and Victorian properties, extensions and outbuildings.
Our cast iron airbricks are supplied in primed finish, ready for on-site painting. This allows them to be finished to match the existing ironwork or masonry colour of the building. Standard black gloss is the most common finish for conservation and heritage projects.
Polished chrome has a bright mirror finish, while satin chrome has a brushed, low-sheen appearance. Both are available in the telescopic hand winder range. The finish choice typically depends on the ironmongery specification for the project.
Yes. Cast iron hopper heads are the historically correct choice for listed and period buildings, and a like-for-like cast iron replacement is generally accepted without objection by conservation officers. We manufacture to BS 460 for genuine heritage character and durability.
Our cast iron hopper heads are available in a choice of finishes including primer, painted, and specialist heritage finishes. Please call us on 0333 987 4452 or submit an enquiry to discuss the right finish for your project.
Yes. Traditional cast iron column radiators are the authentic choice for period interiors, and plain patterns such as the Victorian 4 column are usually preferred by conservation officers. Replacing radiators or altering pipe runs in a listed building may need listed building consent, so speak to the conservation officer before work starts.
The satin chrome telescopic rooflight hand winder opener is available to order at tuscanfoundry.com. For project or volume enquiries, call 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form on our website.
The louvre face provides directional airflow and offers some resistance to driven rain entering the subfloor void, making it a practical choice for exposed elevations or properties in areas with significant prevailing wind and rainfall. The square-grid (school board) pattern offers a larger open ventilation area but less weather protection.
Yes. Cast iron hopper heads are the historically correct choice for listed and period buildings, and a like-for-like cast iron replacement is generally accepted without objection by conservation officers. We manufacture to BS 460 for genuine heritage character and durability.
Yes. A polished brass finish is historically appropriate for period buildings and is generally acceptable to conservation officers for listed building projects. If you are unsure about the specification requirements for your project, we are happy to advise — call 0333 987 4452.
