This XtraFlo Union Bracket is designed to connect two 170mm XtraFlo gutter lengths together and secure them in-place against a fascia board. It forms part of an XtraFlo guttering system that utilises a vortex outlet design to promote a vacuum effect that increases flow rates. Easy to install with enhanced flow capacity and a 10-year performance and colour guarantee.

Important Note: for properties without fascia boards, installing rafter brackets will create fixing points for the fascia brackets in place of the fascia board.
