Pipe nails for the fixing of cast iron downpipes (75mm and 100mm)
The cast iron downpipe fixing nail provides a simple and period-appropriate method for securing cast iron downpipes to a masonry wall. The nail passes through the ear of an eared pipe section and is driven directly into a mortar joint or wall plug, holding the pipe close to the wall face. This is the traditional fixing method for eared cast iron downpipes on Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian masonry buildings.
Available in 75mm and 100mm lengths to suit the standard range of eared round and square cast iron downpipe sections. Supplied in a pack format. The pipe nail is the correct heritage fixing for conservation and listed building projects where the original method of pipe fixing is to be replicated. For specification support, call 0333 987 4452.
