Saxby Cast Iron Hopper Head No.42

£845.00 – £985.00Price range: £845.00 through £985.00 +VAT

Cast iron rainwater ornamental head No.42 and cast iron hopper head No.42 – H2 Castings for period, listed and traditional buildings.

(Bespoke cast iron hopper heads maufactured to order)

Clear

The Saxby Cast Iron Hopper Head No.1 is one of the most recognisable forms in the traditional rainwater catalogue — a wide-shouldered, multi-faceted body that narrows dramatically to a slender outlet, with the kind of confident silhouette you see on Victorian terraces, civic buildings, and well-detailed country houses across the UK.

The Saxby No.2 is cast with a flat back for wall mounting, with integral fixing holes, and offered in three pipe sizes: 65mm (2.5″), 75mm (3″), and 100mm (4″). At its largest — for 100mm pipe — the unit measures 355mm wide by 230mm deep and 240mm high, making it a substantial and visually authoritative component on larger drainage runs. The smaller 65mm and 75mm variants share the same 305mm width and 197mm depth, appropriate for secondary stacks, outbuildings, and properties where the downpipe run is lighter.

The multi-faceted tapering body is the defining characteristic of this hopper: it gives the No.2 depth and shadow without relying on applied ornament. On Victorian townhouses, listed commercial properties, and Gothic-influenced ecclesiastical buildings, this form reads as period-accurate and architecturally coherent.

Manufactured to order in solid cast iron in the UK. Available in Standard Black and Heritage Colour finishes, with a linseed oil paint option for conservation and listed building projects.

Pipe connections: Round 65mm, 75mm, 100mm, 150mm.

For listed buildings and conservation projects, call 0333 987 4452 or visit tuscanfoundry.com.
