The Rectangular Pipe Side Bend deflects a cast iron rectangular downpipe run in the side plane — moving the pipe laterally across the building facade whilst maintaining the vertical run. Used where the pipe must clear an obstruction, navigate around a return wall, or change its lateral position on the elevation without a visible offset fitting. The rectangular cross-section is maintained through the bend.
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 listed buildings and period properties where cast iron rectangular downpipes are the correct specification. For specification support, call 0333 987 4452.

In most cases, replacing like-for-like cast iron guttering on a listed building does not require Listed Building Consent (LBC), provided the replacement matches the existing profile, material, and finish exactly. However, any change of material away from cast iron will almost always require consent. We recommend consulting your local conservation officer before proceeding, and we can provide specification documentation to support your application if required.
