Important gutter parts when a gutter goes out of stock?

[Keitai]

My mum has a Marley Extrusion classic ogie shaped gutters. Marley dont sell them as they've gone out of stock but gave me a number of someone who sells them. A nightmare to get hold of spares.


I'm thinking to have a back up of parts in case something breaks and no one sells them anywhere. What's likely to break and need replacing over years? Most likely? I've ordered 5 clips, how about end caps or joiner things as well?

The clips are the main item to fail.....maybe some rubber gaskets if you can get them. Most items will behave if you attack them in the summer!

Are they those black things which compress when clips are tightly locked down to keep it water tight?

Sure, that's them....sometimes the adhesive gives way, they roll up and are a pain after that.

there are no seals or any need for seals in the clips - clips fix the plain gutter not the fittings.

rubber seals work/seal under compression. seals and fittings are under constant movement from expansion & contraction. they are not glued in place.

as above, Marley ogee is supplied most everyplace or from the internet.

Apologies, you’re absolutely right senior moment.....some of mine were glued in with contact adhesive, a bodge from the past.
