Top rafter rise and fall bracket for deep half round cast iron gutter.
Sizes available:
100mm x 75mm
125mm x 75mm
We also manufacture top rafter rise and fall brackets for deep half round guttering made by: Osma, Marley, Hunter and Lindab
The RB500DH is a zinc-plated top rafter rise and fall bracket for plain deep half round cast iron guttering. Where open eaves construction or the absence of a fascia board requires fixing directly to the top surface of a rafter, the RB500DH provides a secure and adjustable support that allows precise fall setting along the gutter run.
The bracket features a zinc-plated steel rafter arm designed for top-surface rafter fixing, combined with a threaded rise and fall cup that adjusts the gutter height at each bracket position independently of the rafter pitch. Available in four sizes to suit all standard deep half round gutter profiles: 100mm (4″), 115mm (4.5″), 125mm (5″), and 150mm (6″).
Commonly specified on listed building and heritage restoration projects involving deep half round cast iron guttering, and on new construction where exposed rafters and open eaves are a feature of the design. The rise and fall mechanism eliminates the need to pack or shim the bracket, allowing accurate gradient setting across long gutter runs or on complex roof lines.
Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance for outdoor use. The RB500DH is the deep half round equivalent of the RB500 bracket, dimensioned specifically for the wider and deeper profile of the deep half round section.
Compatibility: Plain deep half round cast iron gutter profiles 100mm, 115mm, 125mm, and 150mm. For project specification, call 0333 987 4452.

We manufacture a wide variety of brackets for many different cast iron gutter and pipe profiles. More common types are the rise and fall, top fix and side fix rafter and the holderbat or pipe clip.
We can also offer traditional drive brackets, repair brackets and fascia brackets in both steel and cast iron.
It is always advisable to replace like with like because quite often the brackets form and important part of the buildings architecture. Occasionally buildings have special decorative brackets and our UK manufacturing allows us to produce small quantities of bespoke brackets when required.
Yes. Decorative cast iron and brass ventilation grilles of this pattern were widely used in Victorian and Edwardian buildings, and like-for-like replacements are generally accepted by conservation officers for listed building works. We can provide product specifications and material details to support listed building consent applications if required.

Tuscan Foundry supplies screw-jack rooflight openers in polished brass, satin chrome, and polished chrome finishes. Options include telescopic hand-winder openers in 150mm, 250mm, and 300mm sizes, fixed screw-jack stays, and pole-operated handles for high-level rooflights. All are designed for timber-framed rooflights and skylights.
The Antique Black finish suits Victorian, Edwardian, and inter-war buildings where ventilation ironwork was painted rather than polished — estate houses, terrace housing, civic buildings, and rural properties. It is also correct for listed buildings and conservation area properties requiring like-for-like replacement of original ornamental cast iron vents.
Cast iron hopper heads from Tuscan Foundry are available in Standard Black (a factory-applied primer and topcoat finish) and Heritage Colours. A linseed oil paint finish is also available, providing a vapour-permeable, historically authentic coating that is particularly appropriate for listed buildings and conservation projects. Full finish specifications are available from the team.
