Drilling & Cutting Gutters

Drilling Gutters

Hole size is 8mm (5/16") and should be positioned centrally 20mm from the spigot of the gutter (Fig. 1).

The hole in a fitting socket will provide a useful template. We recommend the use of tungsten tipped drills.

 
Cutting

Gutters can be cut using a hacksaw, the blade should be tungsten tipped with 50 teeth per inch. A powered saw or disc cutter can be used. (Fig. 2)

Note: Please observe the necessary safety precautions recommended by the tool manufacturer.
