The Brett Martin 65mm Square to Round Downpipe Adaptor is an essential component for homeowners and contractors looking to bridge the gap between existing square downpipe profiles and round drainage systems. Designed for property renovations and repair projects, this adaptor ensures a seamless transition to maintain efficient water runoff. While it offers superior flow capacity and ease of installation, users should ensure their existing pipe dimensions match the 65mm standard to maintain a watertight seal.

No, this is specifically designed for 65mm square downpipe systems.
The finish is designed to be colorfast and durable in its original Arctic White, so painting is not recommended and may void the finish guarantee.
The manufacturer provides a 10-year guarantee specifically for the colourfastness of the white finish.
Yes, it is suitable for both residential and light commercial use, provided it meets the flow requirements of the building.
The finish is designed for minimal maintenance; standard cleaning with water and mild detergent is sufficient.
It is tested for accelerated ageing in accordance with BS EN 607: 1995.
Ensure the pipe is pushed fully into the adaptor seat and check that the pipe end is cut square rather than at an angle.
Verify that you are using 65mm pipe as specified; if the pipe is slightly undersized, ensure wall clips are correctly positioned to support the weight.
To ensure a successful installation, first verify that your existing square downpipe is a standard 65mm profile. Ensure the cut end of your downpipe is clean and free of plastic burrs before attempting to snap the adaptor into place. For optimal results, ensure the vertical downpipe is securely fixed to the wall using compatible clips, as the adaptor is designed to carry water weight rather than structural load.
For ongoing care, periodically clear the guttering and downpipes of leaves or debris to maintain the high-flow efficiency this system provides. The Arctic White finish is low-maintenance; simply wipe down with a soft cloth and mild soapy water if the surface accumulates dirt or pollutants over time. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the surface finish.
