Zinc plated coach screws in packs of 10.
UK delivery from £30. Fittings are despatched boxed. See delivery rates.
The coach screw is a heavy-duty zinc-plated wood screw used to fix cast iron downpipe strap brackets and holderbats to timber — typically to rafter feet, roof boarding, timber-framed walls, or wooden soffits where a standard masonry fixing is not available or appropriate. The coarse thread and hexagonal head of the coach screw provide high pull-out resistance in timber and allow the fixing to be driven and tightened with a spanner or socket wrench rather than a screwdriver.
Supplied in packs of 10. Zinc-plated for outdoor corrosion resistance. Appropriate for use with cast iron downpipe brackets on period buildings where timber construction is the available fixing substrate. For specification support, call 0333 987 4452.

The Pultney Tapered Hopper Head is well suited to Georgian and Regency townhouses, Victorian terraces, rural farmhouses, barns, and functional estate buildings where a plain, period-correct hopper is the appropriate specification. It also works well on new heritage-style construction. Its unfussy, chamfered form makes it a versatile choice across a wide range of traditional building types.

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. Churches and ecclesiastical buildings are one of our most common project types. We regularly supply large sand cast gutters, rectangular and square downpipes, and bespoke hopper heads for church restorations. Many churches have non-standard profiles that require copy casting. We work directly with architects, church fabric advisors, and quinquennial inspection surveyors. Historic England and many Diocesan Advisory Committees specify cast iron as the appropriate material for listed ecclesiastical buildings.
