The RB500G46 is a top rafter rise and fall bracket for the G46 moulded cast iron gutter. Where open eaves construction or the absence of a fascia board requires fixing to the top surface of a rafter, the RB500G46 provides a secure, adjustable support that allows precise fall setting across the gutter run. The bracket cup is dimensioned specifically for the G46 moulded section — the larger Victorian and Edwardian ogee profile — ensuring a correctly seated fit.
Available in both G46 profile sizes: 125mm (5″) and 150mm (6″). Zinc-plated steel finish for outdoor corrosion resistance. The threaded rise and fall cup eliminates shimming and allows accurate gradient control on long runs or complex roof lines, which is particularly important on the large Victorian and Edwardian buildings where the G46 profile is commonly found.
Specified on listed buildings and heritage restoration projects where the G46 moulded pattern is the historically correct profile. The RB500G46 is the G46 equivalent of the RB500 bracket range, dimensioned for the wider and deeper G46 section.
Compatibility: G46 moulded cast iron gutter 125mm and 150mm only. For specification support, call 0333 987 4452.

Yes. Cast iron is the original material for external soil stacks on most period buildings, and like-for-like replacement in cast iron is usually what conservation officers expect. Check with your local planning authority whether listed building consent is needed for the works.

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.
Our cast iron hopper heads are available with 65mm, 75mm and 100mm round outlets, 75mm, 100mm and 125mm square outlets, and 100x75mm, 125x100mm and 150x125mm rectangular outlets, to match the downpipe already on site or specified for the project.
Bespoke and copy cast iron rainwater goods typically have a lead time of 12 to 14 weeks from order confirmation. This covers pattern-making, casting, finishing, and quality inspection. Stock items are typically despatched within 5 to 7 working days, and non-stock standard profiles within 7 to 10 working days. We always recommend confirming lead times at enquiry stage so your project programme is not affected.
The Ornamental Airbrick is suited to Victorian villas, bay-fronted terraces, Gothic Revival institutional buildings, church halls, and civic buildings where decorative ironwork is part of the architectural language. It is also appropriate for listed buildings and conservation area properties where the airbrick is on a prominent elevation and the ventilation grille is expected to carry decorative character.

BS 460:2002 is the British Standard governing cast iron rainwater goods — gutters, pipes, and fittings. It sets the dimensional tolerances, materials, and performance requirements a component must meet, so that joints seal, sections align, and the system performs as a whole rather than as isolated parts. All Tuscan Foundry Products components are manufactured to comply with BS 460:2002, which is worth citing directly in specification documents and listed building consent applications. The same manufacturing standard applies to bespoke and copy-cast work, even where the profile itself isn't from our standard range.
