Product Overview
65mm Square Downpipe to Round Adaptor in Black.
This uPVC fitting is designed to transition from 65mm square downpipes to 68mm round downpipe fittings, allowing system changes where required. Manufactured from impact-resistant PVC with UV stability for long service life.
The adaptor provides a smooth connection between differing profiles, while the black finish blends with dark rooflines.
