152mm to 110mm Gutter Union

[McPhee1701]

Morning All,
Been on a Job changing some guttering whilst fitting the Sofitts and Fascias - Next door has and industrial gutter 152mm Hunter Guttering and I have just put up 110mm deep flow. I am struggling to find a Union Joint anyway to connect the 2 and have had to just seal them temporarily until I can. Any of you know where i can find them? A online link would be even more so appreciated.

Hope someone here can help!

There isn’t one. And even if there was one the chance of lining it up properly would be a long shot. You need to fit a stopend on their 6 inch gutter and a stop end on your deep flow gutter. The stopends will need to be butting up to each other hard and use solvent cement between them to bond them together nice and tight. Then you cut out the middle with a multi tool or jigsaw so from the outside it just looks like two terminated gutter ends touching each other so nosey neighbours can’t moan but inside you’ve cut it out. Once you’ve glued them tight you can unclip and cut them on the workbench rather then try and cut them with tiles and felt in the way.

Excellent idea about glueing and cutting out
