What is a Commercial 170mm Gutter Fascia Bracket used for?
A gutter fascia bracket (also known as a gutter clip or support) is the primary fixing used to anchor a 170mm commercial gutter to a building’s fascia board. Because 170mm systems are designed for massive industrial roofs—such as warehouses, factories, and barns—the volume of water they carry is significantly higher than domestic systems. These brackets are engineered with a deeper profile and thicker walls to ensure the gutter remains perfectly aligned and securely fastened even when at full capacity.
Why Spacing and Strength Matter in Commercial Systems
At ECO HEAT SHOP, we recommend a maximum spacing of 600mm between each commercial fascia bracket. This ensures the 170mm gutter maintains its “fall” (slope) and does not sag. Sagging creates standing water, which increases the weight load on the system and leads to premature seal failure. Our brackets feature a “top-clip” locking mechanism that allows the gutter to snap into place securely while still permitting the necessary thermal expansion and contraction.
Engineered for Industrial Environments
Our commercial rainwater components are manufactured from high-impact PVC-U, chosen for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to chemical pollutants. The sleek black finish is not just for aesthetics; it is UV-stabilized to handle the intense exposure typical of large, unobstructed commercial rooflines. This ensures a maintenance-free lifespan of decades, protecting the building’s fabric from water damage.
