Heavy Duty Aluminum Gutter Wedge for Angled Fascia

Aluminum Bar Gutter Wedge for Gutter Hanger - Available in colors

Available in Mill Finish or several Powder Coated Colors. For Hangers used with Half-Round Gutters, Box and K-Style Gutters

K&M's Gutter Wedge is manufactured from 3/16" aluminum bar stock. The dimensions and angles change along with the roof pitch in order to hang a gutter correctly.
A mounting hole is provided at the very top of the wedge and a optional hole is also provided at the back from sizes of pitch 3 and up.
This gutter wedge will work with most gutter hangers that can accept a 1/4" bolt for attachment through the back. It works with our #15 half round gutter hanger and our aluminum cross bar hanger.
Like our universal roof mounts and rafter mounts, our gutter wedge allows for 4.25" of total vertical pitch adjustments in 1/8" increments. It comes with a 1/4" Stainless Steel bolt and locking nut.
Used on Aluminum gutters, steel gutters and galvalume gutters. Powder coated to match.
It is important to note that all dimensions and angles assume that the fascia board is perpendicular to the roof line, meaning it measures 90° off the roof. This should always be the case when the fascia is angled, however, it may not be, so please double checking before ordering.
When a hidden hanger is used (as the crossbar hanger in the examples shown), a hole will need to be drilled in the back of the gutter to attach the hanger to the gutter wedge with the provided bolt.

Measuring the pitch

The pitch or the angle of a roof is calculated by how many inches it rises vertically for every 12 inches it extends horizontally. For example, a roof that rises 6 inches for every 12 inches of horizontal run is called a 6 pitch or a 6-12 pitch.
If drawn on a piece of paper, this triangle would have a 26.57° angle off the horizontal line (the wall line). A different example is a 12-12 pitch, where the rise is 12" over a 12" span, creating a 45° angle. A flat roof would have a 0 pitch.

Powder Coating Disclosure

Our colored gutter wedge bars are powder coated, which provides a very durable, long lasting finish. Be sure to order the correct pitch as these items are manufactured from thick bar stock. There will be significant paint stretching in post powder coating bending, which will lead to some paint cracking / chipping.
To avoid any issues, we recommend that the correct roof bars be purchased pre bent to the correct roof pitch, and if not, that a can of touch up spray paint be added to your order.
