The RB501G46 is a side rafter rise and fall bracket for the G46 moulded cast iron gutter. Where there is no fascia board — on open eaves, or where the rafter face is the only available fixing point — the RB501G46 mounts directly to the side face of the rafter and provides adjustable support at the correct height for the gutter run. The bracket cup is shaped specifically for the G46 moulded section.
Available in both G46 profile sizes: 125mm (5″) and 150mm (6″). Zinc-plated steel finish. The threaded rise and fall cup allows precise fall setting at each bracket position independently of the rafter pitch — important on the large Victorian and Edwardian buildings where the G46 is the standard profile and long gutter runs require accurate gradient management.
Specified on listed buildings and heritage restoration projects where the G46 moulded pattern is the historically correct profile. The RB501G46 is the G46 equivalent of the RB501 bracket range.
Compatibility: G46 moulded cast iron gutter 125mm and 150mm only. For specification support, call 0333 987 4452.

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.
Hopper heads are supplied in red oxide primer ready for on-site painting, or pre-finished in black. A full range of Heritage Colours in traditional linseed oil paint is also available on request — please contact us for the swatch chart.
In most cases, replacing like-for-like cast iron guttering on a listed building does not require Listed Building Consent (LBC), provided the replacement matches the existing profile, material, and finish exactly. However, any change of material away from cast iron will almost always require consent. We recommend consulting your local conservation officer before proceeding, and we can provide specification documentation to support your application if required.
The Polished Lacquered finish suits buildings where period ironwork was finished bright rather than painted — formal entrance elevations, listed properties, and settings where the grille contributes to the decorative programme of the facade. It is appropriate for conservation specifications and high-specification heritage new build.
Hopper heads are supplied in red oxide primer ready for on-site painting, or pre-finished in black. A full range of Heritage Colours in traditional linseed oil paint is also available on request — please contact us for the swatch chart.
The handle is compatible with Lumen Rooflights and most pole-operated rooflight and skylight systems. If you are unsure whether it suits your specific rooflight, call us on 0333 987 4452 and we can advise.
At the foot of each stack above the shoe or gully, directly above offsets and bends, and below hopper heads where trees overhang the roof. On tall or long runs, an extra access point part-way up makes clearance easier.
