SAINT-GOBAIN PAM UK, a supplier of
cast iron rainwater and gutter systems,
has launched a new brochure featuring
its Classical range of rainwater pipes
and guttering systems, designed
and developed using the latest pipe
manufacturing technology, and in
accordance with BS 460.
The Classical range incorporates
the benefits of cast iron over other
materials like plastic, giving it the
strength to withstand high winds,
heavy snow, and vandalism. Cast
iron is a sustainable material, as the
manufacturing process uses 97%
recycled material and the product is,
in turn, 100% recyclable.
The manufacturing technology used
to produce circular Classical rainwater
downpipes centrifugally spins the pipe,
ensuring consistent section dimensions,
unlike the traditional sand cast method,
which is prone to produce pipe with
‘thick’ and ‘thin’ spots making the pipe
inherently weaker.
The standard Classical range is supplied
with a water-based primer coat, ready
for on-site painting to match any colour
scheme. Alternatively, the rainwater and
gutter system can be supplied with the
finished ‘Classical Plus’ coating, ready
for immediate installation.
Classical Express is a true half round
gutter profile with increased flow rates,
and is connected using unique jointing
clips that can be easily installed in any
weather. Express is available with either
the water based primer coat or the
Classical Plus finish.
The Classical range offers eight gutter
profiles: four half round profiles (half
round, deep round, beaded half round,
and the Classical Express true half
round profile), three decorative profiles
(Notts, Ogee and Moulded No 46), and
the square profile Box gutter. There are
also two rainwater downpipe systems
available: round or rectangular.
