Side rafter rise and fall bracket for G46 cast iron gutter.
Sizes available:
100mm x 75mm
125mm x 75mm
We also manufacture side rafter rise and fall brackets for moulded and Og guttering made by: Osma, Marley, Hunter and Lindab
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. Churches and ecclesiastical buildings are one of our most common project types. We regularly supply large sand cast gutters, rectangular and square downpipes, and bespoke hopper heads for church restorations. Many churches have non-standard profiles that require copy casting. We work directly with architects, church fabric advisors, and quinquennial inspection surveyors. Historic England and many Diocesan Advisory Committees specify cast iron as the appropriate material for listed ecclesiastical buildings.
