The RB500 is a zinc-plated top rafter rise and fall bracket for plain half round cast iron guttering. Where a fixed bracket is not appropriate — on open eaves, cut roof constructions, or where the rafter provides the only available fixing point — the top rafter bracket provides a secure, adjustable support mounted directly to the top surface of the rafter.
The bracket features a zinc-plated steel rafter arm for top-surface fixing, combined with a threaded rise and fall cup that allows gutter fall to be set precisely at each bracket position. Available in four sizes to suit all standard cast iron half round gutter profiles: 100mm (4″), 115mm (4.5″), 125mm (5″), and 150mm (6″).
Suited to new construction with exposed rafters, heritage restoration projects where a continuous fascia board is absent, and any situation where top rafter fixing is structurally preferred. Commonly specified alongside cast iron half round gutter sections and angle fittings on period and listed building projects where precise fall control is critical to long-term performance.
The rise and fall mechanism eliminates the need to pack or shim the bracket, allowing accurate gradient setting across long gutter runs on uneven or complex roof lines. Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance for outdoor use.
Compatibility: Cast iron half round gutter profiles 100mm, 115mm, 125mm, and 150mm. For technical queries or project specification support, call 0333 987 4452.

We do offer a range of Ogee patterned gutters in both straight and radius profiles. The straight profiles are much more common and as such cost less.
Yes. The ornamental foliate pattern was widely used in Victorian construction and is appropriate for Grade II listed buildings and conservation area properties. Its decorative character is often preferable to a plain pattern on prominent or formal elevations. We recommend confirming the pattern with your conservation officer as part of any listed building consent application.

The Brass Rooflight Hand Winder Opener – Telescopic is available in 150mm, 250mm, and 300mm sizes. The telescopic mechanism provides flexibility to accommodate varying rooflight positions and throw requirements. Throw: 165mm.
In most cases, replacing like-for-like cast iron guttering on a listed building does not require Listed Building Consent (LBC), provided the replacement matches the existing profile, material, and finish exactly. However, any change of material away from cast iron will almost always require consent. We recommend consulting your local conservation officer before proceeding, and we can provide specification documentation to support your application if required.
The physical properties of cast iron are sustained throughout its working life, so with proper maintenance we'd expect our gutters and pipes to last over 100 years under normal conditions.

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.
