Cast iron square pipe ornamental earband (Pattern G) for 75mm x 75mm and 100mm x 100mm square rainwater downpipes on period, listed and traditional buildings.
UK delivery from £30. Fittings are despatched boxed. See delivery rates.
The Square Pipe Ornamental Earband Pattern G is a decorative cast iron collar for square downpipes, with fleur-de-lis fixing ears with a raised central rib. It is specified on conservation and listed building projects where Pattern G matches the surviving ornamental earbands on the original installation, so the restored elevation keeps the correct decorative detail.
Ornamental earbands were a standard feature on formal Victorian and Edwardian facades, including civic buildings, churches, large commercial premises and institutional architecture, where the downpipe run was treated as part of the architectural composition. Cast to BS 460:2002 and available for 75mm x 75mm (3″ x 3″) and 100mm x 100mm (4″ x 4″) square pipe, in primer or black painted finish. Linseed oil and heritage colour finishes are available on request. For specification support, call 0333 987 4452.

BS 460:2002 is the British Standard governing cast iron rainwater goods — gutters, pipes, and fittings. It sets the dimensional tolerances, materials, and performance requirements a component must meet, so that joints seal, sections align, and the system performs as a whole rather than as isolated parts. All Tuscan Foundry Products components are manufactured to comply with BS 460:2002, which is worth citing directly in specification documents and listed building consent applications. The same manufacturing standard applies to bespoke and copy-cast work, even where the profile itself isn't from our standard range.
The H530 measures 330mm wide x 150mm deep x 350mm high, making it well suited to Georgian and Victorian terraces, where a compact, narrow footprint is needed.

Yes. Cast iron rainwater goods are widely accepted by conservation officers and historic environment bodies as the appropriate material for listed buildings. Tuscan Foundry's hopper heads are manufactured in solid cast iron to BS 460 specification and are suitable for all listed building grades. A linseed oil paint finish is also available, which is particularly appropriate for conservation projects.
