Tuscan EN877 Soil is a socketless cast iron soil, waste and rainwater system made to BS EN 877. Plain-ended pipes and fittings are joined with stainless steel or ductile iron couplings, giving a slim, continuous line on a façade or in a service riser. Cast iron is non-combustible, quiet in use and very long-lived. That is why it remains the specification of choice for heritage buildings, tall stacks, and anywhere acoustic performance or fire safety matters.
A plain-ended cast iron pipe supplied in 3 metre lengths. It is cut to length on site and joined to fittings with couplings, so there are no sockets to accommodate and runs can be altered later by releasing a coupling.
Available in 7 sizes, from 50mm to 300mm. Nominal weights run from 15.7 kg (50mm) to 129.7 kg (300mm).
Typical use: Straight runs of above-ground soil, waste, vent and rainwater systems, cut to suit between fittings.
| Size | Product code | Nominal weight |
|---|---|---|
| 50mm | HS2001 | 15.7 kg |
| 70mm | HS3001 | 19.4 kg |
| 100mm | HS4001 | 29.7 kg |
| 150mm | HS6001 | 45.2 kg |
| 200mm | HS8001 | 71.2 kg |
| 250mm | HS10001 | 99.8 kg |
| 300mm | HS12001 | 129.7 kg |

Prices are per item, excluding VAT and delivery. Stock items are usually dispatched within 5 to 7 working days, and non-stock sizes within 7 to 10 working days. For a full stack or drainage schedule, or advice on the right fittings, call 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form.
It is available in 50mm (HS2001), 70mm (HS3001), 100mm (HS4001), 150mm (HS6001), 200mm (HS8001), 250mm (HS10001), 300mm (HS12001).
Cut it square with a proprietary cast iron pipe cutter or an abrasive disc, then remove any burr. A square, clean end is what lets the coupling seal properly. Touch up the cut end with paint before fitting.
Support every length with at least one bracket, normally close to the coupling, with additional brackets on longer horizontal runs. Vertical stacks also need stack supports at intervals so the weight is not carried by the lowest fitting.

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.
The in-house Premier Extra coating is formulated for a life expectancy of around 10 years under normal weather conditions, provided any impact damage or surface scuffing is made good promptly. Coastal locations or higher pollution levels can shorten this, so it's worth asking your local stockist or paint manufacturer for site-specific advice.
The Cast Iron Louvre Airbrick (F020802AFC) is available in 225mm × 75mm, 225mm × 150mm, and 225mm × 225mm — standard brick course heights. All sizes share a consistent depth for straightforward like-for-like replacement of original cast iron louvre airbricks.
Linseed oil paint is the most appropriate finish for cast iron guttering on listed and historic buildings. It is breathable, flexible, and penetrating — qualities that suit the movement characteristics of cast iron through seasonal temperature changes. Tuscan Foundry Products offers a curated range of heritage linseed oil colours. For modern applications, a high-quality exterior oil-based paint system over a metal primer is also acceptable.
Cast iron hopper heads are priced on enquiry due to the range of connection and finish options available. Please call us on 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form and we will respond promptly with a quotation tailored to your project requirements.
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.
The handle is compatible with Lumen Rooflights and most pole-operated rooflight and skylight systems. If you are unsure whether it suits your specific rooflight, call us on 0333 987 4452 and we can advise.
The standards for our cast iron gutters and pipes have remained remarkably constant for many years. The physical properties of cast iron are sustained throughout its lifetime thus maintaining its effectiveness. Coupled with is durability and proper maintenance, we would expect our traditional cast iron rainwater products to last for over 50 years under normal conditions.
Our cast iron hopper heads are available in a standard primed and black-painted finish, ready for on-site topcoats. Heritage colour finishes and factory-applied linseed oil paint are available on request. Linseed oil paint is a vapour-permeable, period-appropriate finish particularly well suited to listed buildings and conservation area properties.
