This 160mm x 100mm box stop end in black has been manufactured from aluminium as part of the Aqualine range of aluminium guttering from Alumasc. Alumasc are considered by many to be the UK’s leading manufacturer of aluminium guttering and rainwater systems, and use new technologies and manufacturing techniques to create products that not only meet industry standards but also surpass expectations regarding quality, performance and design. The black box stop end has been designed specifically for use with box profile guttering from the Aqualine range. The box profile Aqualine guttering is designed in a rectangular trough shape, which helps to maximise flow and capacity, but also provides a striking look with angular lines and a uniform shape. The black stop end is available as a left hand stop end or right hand stop end. The stop end sits within the box profile gutter run in order to prevent water from continuing along the gutter, and is particularly commonly installed in conjunction with running outlets to direct the rainwater into the downpipe and towards the drainage system. Why choose Alumasc Aqualine guttering? The Alumasc Aqualine range of guttering is part of the contemporary aluminium rainwater range from Alumasc. Performance and design The Alumasc Aqualine guttering system features a number of characteristics that make it one of the highest performing gutter systems available. The design of Aqualine takes into account potential dangers of cracking and splitting due to thermal movement, so at every joint across the gutter system thermal movement can occur without causing damage. The Aqualine gutter system has also been designed to be installed with concealed fixing and jointing, which not only helps to create a clean external appearance, but also helps minimise the potential for leaks to occur. This is further aided by the dry joint seals, which are secured by sliding lock bars for maximum watertightness. Installation The installation process of Alumasc Aqualine is quick and easy, aided by the fact that the gutters are lightweight and easy to handle. Support brackets simply need to be fixed to the building fabric, and then a simple clip fix is all that is required to secure the gutter in place. Aesthetics The Aqualine range is available in a vast range of colours, sizes and profiles, which allow a high level of customisation in order to create the perfect look for your project. Whether you’re looking to create a subtle guttering run with relatively traditional profiles, or you want to make the gutters a feature, in bright colours and contemporary profiles, the Alumasc Aqualine range will have exactly what you are looking for, with BBA approved polyester powder coatings, and including all the accessories you’ll need to create a single, uniform look. Environmentally friendly The Aqualine guttering range is a compact and efficient rainwater system that is manufactured from 100% recyclable aluminium in the UK. Additionally, the Aqualine guttering system has a life expectancy of 40 years or more in rural or suburban areas, and up to 25 years in industrial and marine environments. This means that not only are less gutter profiles required over time due to their long lasting design, when they are finally replaced they can be recycled.
