The Brett Martin 68mm Round Downpipe Bracket is an essential component for homeowners and contractors maintaining or installing a 112mm half-round rainwater drainage system. Its primary benefit is providing long-term structural stability for downpipes, ensuring they remain firmly anchored against exterior walls regardless of weather intensity. While it is highly durable and compliant with industry standards, users should note it is specifically designed for 68mm round systems and may not fit alternative square or larger diameter piping configurations.

This bracket is specifically designed for 68mm diameter round downpipes.
No, this bracket is engineered exclusively for round profile piping.
No, fixings are typically supplied separately as they vary depending on the wall material (e.g., brick, stone, or timber).
It is manufactured to comply with BS EN 607 and EN 1462 standards.
While it comes in a durable Arctic White finish, if you choose to paint it, ensure you use a plastic-compatible primer and exterior-grade paint.
For optimal support, it is recommended to place a bracket at least every 2 meters along the vertical downpipe run.
Check that the wall plug used is the correct size for the screw and the substrate. Replace with a larger diameter wall plug if the masonry is crumbling.
Ensure that the downpipe is not being subject to excessive thermal expansion. If necessary, use a small amount of silicone sealant or check that the bracket is properly tightened around the pipe collar.
To install, mark the desired vertical line for your downpipe and drill pilot holes into the masonry using a masonry drill bit of the appropriate diameter for your wall plugs. Secure the bracket through the rear mounting hole before slotting the downpipe into place.
Compatibility: This product is specifically part of the 112mm half-round system. It will not work with high-capacity or deep-flow profile gutters.
Care: Inspect your brackets annually, preferably before the winter season. Check that the fixings are still tight against the wall and that there is no sign of plastic fatigue or cracking. Clean the brackets using a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to maintain their Arctic White appearance.
