The TFH3B is a large sand cast single beaded deep half round gutter. A single bead runs along the front lip of the deep half round section, providing a degree of decorative definition without the full double bead of the TFH3A. Also referenced as pattern numbers No.45, No.46A, and No.47, this profile is specified on large Victorian and Edwardian buildings where the bead detail is part of the original historic installation but a single rather than double bead is the correct profile for the building.
Appropriate for large-format conservation and heritage restoration projects where standard stock sizes are insufficient for the roof drainage requirement. Particularly relevant on larger institutional and civic buildings in Scotland and northern England where beaded half round profiles are the regional standard.
Available in three sizes: 125×100mm, 150×100mm, and 200×100mm. Sand cast iron, manufactured to BS 460:2002. Supplied in grey primer or black painted finish. Fittings and brackets are available. Contact Tuscan Foundry Products to discuss your project requirements.
Suitable for: Large heritage buildings, civic architecture, churches, country houses, institutional conservation projects. Call for price: 0333 987 4452.
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.

Size selection depends on the distance between the mounting point and the rooflight frame, and the desired throw (opening distance). Our telescopic openers are available in 150mm, 250mm, and 300mm; the screw-jack stay is available in 300mm with a 250mm throw. For guidance on sizing for your specific rooflight, please call 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form.

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.
The right size depends on the width of your gutter run and the volume of water you need to collect. The Strayton H42A is available in four widths: 305mm (12"), 355mm (14"), 457mm (18"), and 610mm (24"). As a general guide, wider hoppers suit larger roof areas and heavier rainfall zones. If you are unsure, our team can advise based on your gutter profile and catchment area — call 0333 987 4452.
Our cast iron hopper heads are available in a standard primed and black-painted finish, ready for on-site topcoats. Heritage colour finishes and factory-applied linseed oil paint are available on request. Linseed oil paint is a vapour-permeable, period-appropriate finish particularly well suited to listed buildings and conservation area properties.
The Brass Rooflight Hand Winder Opener – Telescopic is available in 150mm, 250mm, and 300mm sizes. The telescopic mechanism provides flexibility to accommodate varying rooflight positions and throw requirements. Throw: 165mm.
