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.

The H532 measures 560mm wide x 290mm deep x 305mm high, making it well suited to a broad, low-profile design suited to substantial roofs and box gutters on period commercial and civic buildings.
The Cast Iron Louvre Airbrick suits Victorian, Edwardian, and inter-war residential and commercial properties where the louvre-pattern vent was the standard specification. It is the correct like-for-like replacement on listed buildings and conservation area properties, and suits new heritage-style construction requiring an authentic period ventilation grille.
The School Board Airbrick is suited to Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, mid-century school buildings, civic halls, public baths, and converted institutional buildings. Its plain square-grid face matches the utilitarian aesthetic of late-Victorian construction and is also appropriate for new heritage-style builds in conservation areas.

Heritage colour swatches are available from the team on request.
Yes. Cast iron is the material required by most conservation officers and listed building consents for the replacement or replication of traditional rainwater goods. Our hopper heads are produced in solid cast iron and we can assist with specification notes or material statements for planning purposes if required.
Prices are shown on the product page. For project quantities, multiple pattern orders, or a formal quotation, call 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form.
Our brackets are more commonly used on cast iron rainwater systems. Unlike plastic, cast iron is heavy and the weight keeps the gutter in position. As such our brackets do not normally have retaining clips which could lead to plastic or lightweight gutters blowing out of the bracket. The profile of your gutter should match that of our bracket but without the weight to keep it in place you may well encounter problems in bad weather.
Satin chrome has a brushed, low-sheen finish suited to contemporary interiors, while polished chrome has a bright mirror finish. Both are available in the telescopic hand winder range at Tuscan Foundry. The choice typically depends on the existing ironmongery specification.
Prices vary depending on size and finish. To get a quotation, please call 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form on the Tuscan Foundry website. The team can advise on the right specification for your project and provide a written quote.
