The 610mm eared round rainwater pipe is the shortest standard length in our cast iron downpipe range. It completes a run without site cutting, and covers the short drops between a hopper, an offset and a branch, or above a shoe at ground level.
Each length is cast with a spigot at the foot and a socket at the head, with a pair of fixing ears on the socket. The ears hold the pipe off the wall on bobbins and pipe nails, leaving room to paint behind it and keeping run-off from tracking down the masonry. Because the fixings sit at the joints, the lengths you choose set the fixing pattern on the elevation, and shorter lengths give finer control.
Specify it on Georgian and Victorian terraces, country houses, chapels and civic buildings where the existing downpipes are eared, and on new traditional work matching a surviving system. It combines with the 914mm, 1219mm and 1829mm lengths to make up any height.
Sizes: 65mm (2½″), 75mm (3″) and 100mm (4″) diameter.
Cast in solid grey iron in the UK to BS 460, and supplied primed for site painting or factory black painted. Linseed oil paint finishes can be quoted on request.

Tuscan Foundry supplies screw-jack rooflight openers in polished brass, satin chrome, and polished chrome finishes. Options include telescopic hand-winder openers in 150mm, 250mm, and 300mm sizes, fixed screw-jack stays, and pole-operated handles for high-level rooflights. All are designed for timber-framed rooflights and skylights.
The H532 measures 560mm wide x 290mm deep x 305mm high, making it well suited to a broad, low-profile design suited to substantial roofs and box gutters on period commercial and civic buildings.
Yes. Cast iron hopper heads are the historically correct choice for listed and period buildings, and a like-for-like cast iron replacement is generally accepted without objection by conservation officers. We manufacture to BS 460 for genuine heritage character and durability.
The H460 accepts round pipe connections in 65mm, 75mm, and 100mm diameters. Square pipe connections are available in 75×75mm, 100×100mm, and 125×125mm. Rectangular connections include 100×75mm, 125×100mm, and 150×100mm options. Connection type is selected at the point of order.
The physical properties of cast iron are sustained throughout its working life, so with proper maintenance we'd expect our gutters and pipes to last over 100 years under normal conditions.
Our bespoke rise and fall gutter brackets — including fascia, side rafter, and top rafter variants for Osma Roofline and Osma SuperLine systems — are manufactured to order. The standard lead time is 10–14 working days from receipt of a confirmed order. If you have a programme deadline, please call us on 0333 987 4452 and we will advise on current availability.
Yes. Our telescopic screw-jack openers and pole-operated handles are compatible with Lumen Rooflight systems. They are also suitable for use with other timber-framed rooflights and skylights fitted with appropriate catches or stays. If you are unsure of compatibility, call us on 0333 987 4452 and we can advise.
The Antique Black finish is cast iron with a blackened surface — the most historically accurate finish for cast iron ironwork and the most appropriate for the majority of heritage applications. Polished Lacquered is cast iron with a bright polished surface sealed with clear lacquer, suited to interiors and sheltered locations where polished ironwork is the specification. Polished Brass is solid polished brass throughout — the correct choice where existing building fittings are in brass or where a warm metal tone is required.
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.
