Product Information

Full details

This guide is for builders, roofers, and DIY enthusiasts installing or maintaining gutter systems. The FloPlast Half Round Gutter Internal Stopend (112mm Brown) provides a clean and secure method for capping off the end of a gutter run when used with a gutter fitting. Its main benefit is integrating seamlessly with existing fittings, leveraging their seals. A key caveat is that it cannot be used to seal the gutter directly; an external stop end is required for that purpose.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of an internal stopend?

An internal stopend is used inside a gutter fitting, such as a running outlet, to seal off the end of the gutter run at that fitting, preventing water from escaping where it's not intended.

Can I use this stopend to cap the very end of my gutter directly?

No, this is an *internal* stopend. It must be installed within another fitting. For directly capping the end of a gutter run, you need an *external* gutter end cap.

What size and type of gutter is this stopend for?

This stopend is specifically for 112mm FloPlast Half Round gutter systems.

Does this stopend come with its own seal?

No, this internal stopend relies on the rubber seal already present within the gutter fitting it is installed into.

How is the stopend installed?

It is inserted into the appropriate port of a gutter fitting, with the back edge going in first, and then gently compressed onto the fitting's rubber seal.

What color is this stopend?

This specific product is brown.

How many stopends are included in this pack?

This listing is for a pack of one internal stopend.

Troubleshooting

Stopend does not fit securely into the fitting.

Ensure you are using the correct size (112mm) and profile (Half Round) for your gutter system. Check that the fitting's rubber seal is properly seated and not damaged. Verify you are inserting it into the correct port of the fitting.

Water leak at the stopend connection.

The stopend may not be fully compressed onto the fitting's seal. Remove and reinsert, ensuring firm pressure is applied to seat it completely. Inspect the fitting's seal for damage and replace if necessary.

Difficulty inserting the stopend.

Ensure the fitting opening and the stopend are clean and free of debris. Lubricating the rubber seal slightly with water can sometimes help with insertion, but avoid excessive force.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a neat internal finish to a gutter run.
  • Leverages existing seals in gutter fittings for efficiency.
  • Ensures a secure and watertight connection when installed correctly.
  • Designed for specific compatibility within the FloPlast system.
  • Relatively simple installation process when used with appropriate fittings.

Cons

  • Cannot be used to directly cap the end of a gutter; requires a fitting.
  • Only compatible with FloPlast Half Round gutter systems of the specified size.
  • Requires a fitting with a pre-existing seal to function.
  • Color-specific (brown), may not match all gutter systems.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the gutter fitting (e.g., running outlet) where the gutter run will terminate.
  2. Ensure the fitting has a clean and intact rubber seal.
  3. Gently insert the FloPlast Half Round Gutter Internal Stopend into the appropriate outlet port of the fitting. The back edge should go in first.
  4. Apply slight pressure, allowing the stopend to compress onto the fitting's rubber seal. Ensure it is fully seated and creates a snug fit.
  5. Install the gutter length into the *front* of the same fitting, completing the connection.

Compatibility:

  • Gutter Profile: Exclusively designed for FloPlast Half Round gutter systems.
  • Size: Compatible with 112mm Half Round gutters.
  • Fittings: Must be used in conjunction with a suitable gutter fitting that possesses an internal seal (e.g., running outlets, corner outlets).
  • Direct Gutter Use: *Cannot* be used to directly cap the end of a gutter run. For direct capping, an external gutter end cap is required.

Care:

  • Clean the stopend and surrounding fittings periodically with a damp cloth to remove debris.
  • Inspect the rubber seal within the fitting for signs of wear or damage during routine gutter maintenance.
