The RB501COG is a side rafter rise and fall bracket for the common ogee cast iron gutter. Where there is no fascia board — on open eaves, or where the rafter face is the only available fixing point — the RB501COG mounts directly to the side face of the rafter and provides adjustable support at the correct height for the common OG gutter run. The bracket cup is shaped for the ogee S-curve profile.
The threaded rise and fall cup allows precise fall setting at each bracket position independently of the rafter pitch, eliminating shimming and packing on long runs or where the roof line is uneven. Available in three sizes to suit the standard common ogee range: 100mm (4″), 115mm (4.5″), and 125mm (5″).
Also compatible with common ogee guttering manufactured by Osma, Marley, Hunter, and Lindab, making it a practical bracket solution on mixed or partial replacement installations. Specified on listed buildings, heritage conservation projects, and period properties across England and Wales where the common ogee is the correct profile.
Compatibility: Common ogee gutter 100mm, 115mm, 125mm. Also suits Osma, Marley, Hunter, and Lindab common OG. For specification support, call 0333 987 4452.

With National Maintenance week fast approaching (18th – 25th November 2011), Tuscan Foundry Products Ltd have decided to help period property owners look after rainwater systems by offering big discounts on selected cast iron gutters, pipes and fittings.
Friday 25th November is designated as National Gutters Day and on this particular day, homeowners are encouraged to check their systems for evidence of damage. Repairing sections of damaged cast iron gutter and pipe can help avoid potentially thousands of pounds of damage to brickwork.
Tuscan is offering these savings across a range of profiles and includes both primer and painted stock. The offers will only be available whilst stocks last so visit our website to view our discounted cast iron rainwater goods today.

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.
Victorian properties most commonly used Ogee (OG) gutter profiles, including the standard Cast Iron Ogee and the G46 Moulded Ogee. Half Round guttering was also widely used, particularly in the later Victorian period. The correct profile depends on what is already present on the building — we recommend inspecting any surviving sections and matching the profile, size, and socket direction exactly. We supply 19 standard gutter profiles and can copy-cast any non-standard profile from a drawing, photograph, or physical sample.
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.

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.
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.
