The Rectangular Pipe Shoe Front Plain is the front-discharge termination fitting for a cast iron rectangular downpipe run without integral ears, directing water flow forwards away from the building base. The plain version connects using separate holderbats or wall brackets at the shoe position, allowing the fixing point to be independent of the shoe fitting location. Used where a front discharge is required at the base of the run.
Available in the standard range of rectangular pipe sizes. Supplied in primed or factory black finish. Manufactured in cast iron to BS 460:2002. For specification support, call 0333 987 4452.
