Downpipes are typically installed to run vertically downward. Fortunately, a steel downpipe elbow is available in our metal gutter systems. This allows the pipes to be routed at an angle to reach the main downpipe or settler. Thus, one can effectively direct the roof drainage installation as deemed appropriate, ensuring it does not detract from the building’s appearance.
Water flowing down the downpipe system quickly accelerates, gaining energy in the process. When it encounters a steel elbow, it strikes with considerable speed. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that the components are well-fitted to withstand such water flow through the steel pipe connections.
The steel gutter system is made from materials with high mechanical strength. They are also resistant to atmospheric conditions, which prevents them from aging over time.

The offered metal gutter elbow is available in two standard dimensions: 90 mm and 100 mm. In both instances, it redirects the water flow by 60°. This feature allows for an effortless connection of downpipes from two separate roof slopes into a single stream. It enhances the functioning of the entire system and enables optimal water flow through the downpipes.
Steel gutter cross section
Our high-quality steel gutters are manufactured with four layers of protective coatings to ensure durability and performance. This superior construction includes a zinc layer applied directly to the steel for corrosion resistance. A passivation layer follows, promoting strong adhesion for the subsequent primer layer, which further enhances the anti-corrosive properties and provides a secure bond for the final layer. The organic coating tops off the system, offering ultimate resilience against adverse weather and mechanical damage while also providing the gutter with its aesthetic appeal. The comprehensive coating process is applied to both the interior and exterior surfaces of the gutter, ensuring thorough protection.
