The Rectangular Pipe Ornamental Earband Pattern D is a decorative cast iron collar fitting around a rectangular downpipe, providing a traditional ornamental detail at intervals along the pipe run. Pattern D has a distinct moulded profile from the other earband patterns (C, G, H) and is specified where this specific pattern matches the surviving earbands on the building, or where conservation accuracy requires the correct pattern to be reinstated.
Found on Victorian and Edwardian civic buildings, large churches, country houses, and institutional architecture where decorative pipe earbands were part of the original facade specification. Available in sizes to suit the standard rectangular pipe range. For specification support, call 0333 987 4452.

The H541 measures 274mm wide x 130mm deep x 330mm high, making it well suited to a slender profile suited to narrow Georgian townhouses and terraces where space is limited.
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 H540 measures 600mm wide x 340mm deep x 475mm high, making it well suited to substantial country houses, civic and ecclesiastical buildings.
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.
Size selection depends on the distance between the mounting point and the rooflight frame, and the desired throw (opening distance). Our telescopic openers are available in 150mm, 250mm, and 300mm; the screw-jack stay is available in 300mm with a 250mm throw. For guidance on sizing for your specific rooflight, please call 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form.
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.
