No, this clip is specifically designed for 68mm round downpipes.
The manufacturer recommends using 5mm x 30mm screws.
Standard red or brown wall plugs are typically sufficient for most masonry applications.
For optimal support, place a clip every 1.8 metres along the vertical length of the pipe.
The uPVC material is designed to be weather-resistant and UV-stable for long-lasting color retention.
The clip features a 28mm stand-off to provide the necessary clearance from the building exterior.
Verify that your pipe is exactly 68mm in diameter and ensure the clip is tightened securely against the wall.
Do not overtighten the screws against the wall, as excessive pressure can stress the uPVC material.
Check that the spacing between clips does not exceed 1.8 metres and ensure all screws are properly anchored in the wall plugs.
To install, use two 5mm x 30mm screws along with appropriate red or brown wall plugs suitable for your specific wall substrate (brick, concrete, or stone). Drill your holes precisely to ensure the clip sits flush against the wall surface. While the uPVC is maintenance-free, it is recommended to periodically inspect the screws for tightness after high-wind events. Clean the clips with mild soapy water during your seasonal gutter cleaning to maintain the finish.
