Rectangular Pipe Build In Holderbat

Price range: £130.70 through £411.90 ex VAT (£156.84 – £494.28 inc VAT)

Cast iron build-in holderbat for fixing plain rectangular downpipes, 100x75mm to 150x100mm, in primer or black painted finish.

UK delivery from £45. Longer items are despatched palletised. See delivery rates.

The Rectangular Pipe Build In Holderbat fixes a plain, un-eared rectangular downpipe to the wall. Its tail is built into a mortar joint and the collar holds the pipe at the socket.

Build-in holderbats are the traditional fixing on many Georgian and Victorian buildings, and are the correct like-for-like replacement where the original holderbats survive in the masonry.

They are usually set during repointing or new work. For fixing to a finished wall face, use a plain or ornamental earband.

All fittings in our rectangular range are cast iron to BS 460:2002, made to the same moulded profile so pipes and fittings line up neatly on the elevation. Every fitting is supplied either in primer, ready for painting on site, or in factory black. For listed buildings and conservation areas we also offer hand-applied linseed oil paint in heritage colours, which stays breathable and flexible and is straightforward to maintain. Stocked items are usually dispatched within 5 to 7 working days; allow around 6 to 7 weeks where a linseed oil finish is specified.

Rectangular pipe sizes: 100mm x 75mm (4″ x 3″), 125mm x 70mm, 125mm x 100mm (5″ x 4″) and 150mm x 100mm (6″ x 4″).

Suitable for listed buildings, conservation areas and heritage restoration. For specification support or a project quotation, call 0333 987 4452.

FAQ Categories

All FAQ
How is a build-in holderbat fixed?
The tail is set into a raked-out mortar joint and pointed in with a suitable lime or cement mortar to match the wall.
Holderbat or earband?
Holderbats are built into the masonry and are traditional on many period buildings. Earbands are screwed to the wall face and are easier to fit to a finished wall.
Which rectangular pipe sizes are available?
Four sizes: 100mm x 75mm (4" x 3"), 125mm x 70mm, 125mm x 100mm (5" x 4") and 150mm x 100mm (6" x 4"). Measure across the outside of the existing pipe, broad face first.
Is the Rectangular Pipe Build In Holderbat suitable for a listed building?
Yes. It is a traditional cast iron fitting made to BS 460:2002 in the moulded profile found on period rectangular downpipe runs. It can be supplied in primer, black, or hand-applied linseed oil paint in heritage colours for conservation work.
