What is a 112° 68mm Downpipe Branch used for?
A downpipe branch, commonly referred to as a Y-junction, is a critical component in complex guttering layouts. It is used whenever two separate downpipe runs—for example, one from a main roof and another from a porch or extension—need to combine into a single discharge point. The 112-degree angle is the industry standard for ensuring that water enters the vertical stack at a natural downward trajectory, minimizing turbulence and debris buildup.
Why Choose the 68mm Round System?
The 68mm round downpipe system is the most widely used drainage profile in the UK due to its versatility and ease of installation. At ECO HEAT SHOP LTD, our 68mm branch offers a “self-cleaning” internal geometry; the curved profile encourages a vortex-like water flow that helps flush away moss and silt, keeping your drainage maintenance-free for longer.
Engineered for the UK Climate
Exterior plumbing must endure intense UV radiation and sub-zero temperatures. This branch is manufactured from high-grade, unplasticized PVC (uPVC). This material is naturally resistant to chemical corrosion and physical impact. Furthermore, it is UV-stabilized, meaning the finish (whether Black, White, or Anthracite) will remain vibrant and won’t become “chalky” or brittle over time, even on south-facing walls.
