Clear

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.

Is a cast iron hopper head suitable for use on a listed building?

Is a cast iron hopper head suitable for use on a listed building?

Yes. Cast iron hopper heads are the historically appropriate choice for listed buildings, and are generally preferred by conservation officers and local planning authorities over modern plastic alternatives. Tuscan Foundry cast iron hopper heads are manufactured in solid grey iron and are suitable for use on listed buildings and within conservation areas. A linseed oil finish is also available, which is particularly appropriate for sensitive heritage projects.

How does the ornamental pattern affect ventilation performance?

How does the ornamental pattern affect ventilation performance?

The Gothic foliate tracery design of the Ornamental Airbrick provides a good free-flow ventilation area relative to its face size. The open area is comparable to other standard cast iron airbrick patterns. The visual density of the pattern at a distance reads as solid ironwork, which suits formal and decorative elevations without compromising subfloor ventilation effectiveness.

Can the Iron Works Hit & Miss Vent be used externally?

Can the Iron Works Hit & Miss Vent be used externally?

The Antique Black cast iron version is suitable for external use. The Polished Lacquered version is best suited to interiors or sheltered external locations where the polished finish will be protected from weathering. The Polished Brass version is suited to interior and semi-exposed locations. For external applications on exposed elevations, the Antique Black finish is the recommended specification.
