The right box gutter for your home

• Standard nominal gutter sizes 200 / 250 / 333 / 400 / 500
• Metal thickness 0.65 mm / 0.7 mm / 0.8 mm depending on nominal size
• Standard length 3.0 m (other lengths on request)
• Standard nominal sizes downpipes (square) 60 / 80 / 100 / 120
• Metal thickness 0.65 mm / 0.7 mm / 0.8 mm depending on nominal size
• Standard length 2.0 m

The nominal size of the gutter indicates the material cut, please refer to the illustration on the left for the exact dimensions. The nominal size for downpipes indicates the side length of the square cross-section.

According to DIN EN 612, gutters are divided into classes X and Y according to their bead diameter or the corresponding section modulus. Regular downpipes are divided into classes X and Y according to the dimension of the seam overlap. RHEINZINK-gutters and downpipes correspond to Class X and thus also meet the requirements of Class Y.

• Fastening of the gutter with specially manufactured gutter bracket  
• Connection of the individual gutter lengths by soft soldering or gluing
• Fastening of downpipes with pipe clamps
• Alternative: RHEINZINK-Universal downpipe bracket for all nominal sizes and shapes

The gutters are fastened in gutter brackets specially manufactured for this purpose (according to DIN EN 1462). These, in turn, are fixed either to the eaves boarding, formwork, rafter (if necessary also laterally) or to the wall. The gutter must be dimensioned according to local requirements.

Rainwater downpipes are usually fixed to the supporting structure with conventional pipe clamps. The distance between the pipe clamps for pipes with a nominal size > 100 mm is max. 2.0 m, for a nominal size ≤ 100 mm the distance is max. 3.0 m. The minimum distance between the downpipes and the structure is 20 mm.
