The RB501DH is a zinc-plated side rafter rise and fall bracket for plain deep half round cast iron guttering. Where there is no fascia board — on open eaves, timber-framed buildings, or structures where rafter-face fixing is preferred — the RB501DH provides a secure, adjustable support mounted directly to the side face of the rafter.
The bracket features a zinc-plated steel rafter arm for side-face 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 the standard range of deep half round gutter profiles: 100mm (4″), 115mm (4.5″), 125mm (5″), and 150mm (6″).
Typically specified on heritage and conservation projects involving deep half round cast iron guttering where the roof construction dictates rafter-face rather than fascia fixing. Also used on refurbishment projects where the original fascia board is absent, damaged, or structurally unsuitable as a fixing surface.
The rise and fall cup allows precise gradient control along the gutter run regardless of rafter angle, eliminating the need for shimming or packing. Zinc-plated finish for outdoor corrosion resistance.
Compatibility: Plain deep half round cast iron gutter profiles 100mm, 115mm, 125mm, and 150mm. For project specification, call 0333 987 4452.

Yes. Cast iron hopper heads are the historically appropriate choice for listed buildings, and are generally preferred by conservation officers and local planning authorities over modern plastic alternatives. Tuscan Foundry cast iron hopper heads are manufactured in solid grey iron and are suitable for use on listed buildings and within conservation areas. A linseed oil finish is also available, which is particularly appropriate for sensitive heritage projects.
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.
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.
The H526 measures 440mm wide x 240mm deep x 460mm high, making it well suited to Victorian and Edwardian townhouses.
Yes. Traditional cast iron column radiators are the authentic choice for period interiors, and plain patterns such as the Victorian 4 column are usually preferred by conservation officers. Replacing radiators or altering pipe runs in a listed building may need listed building consent, so speak to the conservation officer before work starts.
Available in two sizes: 225mm x 82mm (single airbrick course height) and 225mm x 150mm (double course height). Both sizes fit standard brick coursing positions and install flush into the wall face.
