Replacing rusted part of gutter

[vg_39]

Hi 

I have the elbow joint part of the gutter (see attached pics) which needs replacement as it’s fully rusted. Can someone advise the next course of action. The dimensions of the pipe is 100 *75. I have found this pipe in Bunnings which will do the job however I can’t see any elbow joint pipe. The dimensions of elbow are marked in the pic too.

Any help and options on how to progress from here will be appreciated. Cheers

Hi @vg_39,

Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be an elbow available for the 100x75mm zincalume downpipes. 

Traditionally, steel downpipes are cut and bent on site. You can see in your first image that the bend has been sealed with silicone, which indicates this is what was done originally.

If you have a look on Youtube, you'll find videos showing the process if you search for "Cutting and bending rectangular steel downpipes".

If you'd like to give this a try, it will require left cut snips, right cut snips, a drill, a rivet gun and some clear roof and gutter silicone. 

Let me know what you think and if you have further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks for the information Jacob 

Are you aware if  Bunnings or any other roofing/gutter companies cut it based on my measurements.

If Bunnings or a gutter specialist company builds this for me I am quite sure I can install
