The H97 cast iron ornamental hopper head is a simple yet effective design. Slightly smaller than the similar-looking H11 and H132 heads the H97 offers a good-sized collection box which is supported on each side by an elongated ear. The flat face is easily able to accommodate an embellishment and this head can be supplied with a rectangular, square or round outlet.
The H97 has a similar design to the H11 and 132 cast iron ornamental hoppers and although it is slightly smaller it is certainly no less grand. With a large flat face, the H97 is perfect for adding an embellishment such as a date or name. The tail section allows for a rectangular, square or round pipe connection but being smaller than the H11 and H132 it is probably best to keep them small so not as to spoil the shape.
This H197 cast iron hopper head is sized at:
320mm wide
197mm deep
232mm high
Some of our cast iron products such as the ornamental rainwater hopper heads and the rectangular and square rainwater pipes are made to order. They are available within the Metal & Glass cast iron range but need to be cast or fabricated with timescales being slightly longer than our off-the-shelf stock products. They can be ordered securely via our website in exactly the same way as ex-stock products. These cast iron made-to-order items are available in both the grey primer and gloss black painted finish.
We can also offer bespoke hoppers to match original designs as well as adapt existing cast iron hoppers by changing outlet sizes and positions.
What separates Metal & Glass Limited from a number of other cast iron rainwater and soil suppliers is our ability to offer bespoke castings. Using skilled pattern makers and moulders, specialist fabricators and painters and over a century of iron casting experience Metal & Glass Limited can provide bespoke cast iron solutions for your project
We can make bespoke castings to suit any building, ancient or modern, but these skills are most in demand by the conservation, heritage and restoration market. There is no need to resort to the various forms of plastic substitutes on offer. Anything that has been cast in the past, for instance during the Victorian era, we can cast. If they could make it back then, we can make it now.
Traditional Cast Iron Foundry Products, Cast Iron Accessories and UK Castings are all from one supplier.
