Euro Bead Lead Coated Copper Half Round Gutter
Lead Coated Copper Traditional Bead Half Round Gutter
European gutter systems add character, elegance and a timeless look to any home
Our European Bead Half Round LCC gutter is fabricated from the finest 16 oz. or 20 oz. lead coated copper. Half Round lcc gutters offer a distinctive appearance and traditional style appropriate for both historic restoration and new construction. Lead Coated Copper blends well with many roofing products white not having the extreme change in look as patinated copper. It is a low maintenance option that does not require paint or cleaning. Copper will not rust, it is well suited for nautical environments and it is a very durable and long lasting material with an average service life of approximately 70 years.
K&M also supplies gutter guards / screens for all gutter profiles we offer along with all accessories needed for your gutter system.
Custom lengths, sizes and heavier gauges may be available. Please contact us for pricing.
Joining gutter lengths / seams
To put 2 lengths of gutter together, simply cut back the front bead / lip of the gutter 1" or more depending on your needs. Do the same for the hem in the back if present. Cut where needed to create tabs. Overlap the 2 lengths of the gutter and join them by soldering if possible, or with zip screws / rivets and sealer if not.
Coupling pieces can be custom manufactured if needed. Keep in mind that using a coupling piece like a cover plate gives the appearance of 2 seams. Splice plates can also be manufactured. Unlike cover plates, these sit on the inside of the gutter, giving the appearance of one seam, like overlapping 2 gutter lengths.
