Overview

PAC-Tite Gutters and Downspouts are the water drainage line from Petersen under the PAC-CLAD name. The line includes gutters, downspouts, thru-wall scuppers and collector boxes. The PAC-Tite line is Factory Mutual approved and complies with ANSI/SPRI GT-1.

PAC-Tite WR gutters

WR gutters are prefabricated with miters and accessories, so no field fabrication is needed. They are made in 12 ft sections with pre-punched slots that allow for thermal expansion and contraction. An extruded aluminum internal hanger supports the gutter, and no external brackets or wind straps are needed. Splice plates and fasteners are concealed. The extruded aluminum internal brackets carry large water volumes and heavy snow and ice loads, and the internal hanger reduces metal torque from thermal expansion and contraction. Optional drainage bars and flow-through gravel stops fit the gutter.

  • Materials: 24 and 22 gauge steel; .040, .050 and .063 aluminum.
  • Profiles: Offset, Chamfer and Box, each with an FM design.
  • Sizes, as front, bottom and back in inches: 5.25/5.25/6.25, 5.75/5.75/6.75, 6.25/6.25/7.25, 6.75/6.75/7.75, 7.25/7.25/8.25 and 7.75/7.75/8.75.
  • Tested to ANSI/SPRI GT-1 for gutter systems used with low-slope roofs and to the International Building Code. FM Approved for wind uplift, using an alternative bracket configuration.
  • A 30 year, 160 mph wind warranty applies to WR gutters.

PAC-Tite LT gutters

PAC-Tite LT Gutter is made in K-Style and Half Round. K-Style gutters come in standard lengths of 10 ft to 20 ft, with custom lengths available. Gutter straps ship with the product. Accessories include optional drainage bars or flow-through gravel stops, wrapped K-Style external brackets, non-90 degree miters, Style 1 (SMACNA) and Style 2 (free flow) expansion joints, and gutter with roof flange.

K-Style downspouts are 6, 7 and 8 inches in 24 and 22 gauge steel and .032, .040 and .050 aluminum. Sizes vary by material.

K-Style gutter straps are made for large water volumes and heavy snow and icing. LT gutters are manufactured to the required drainage size and capacity.

Downspouts

Industrial downspouts are made in closed and open versions. The open-face version makes debris removal easier. They are made in standard sizes or custom fabricated, with simple connection configurations and three attachment straps per 12 ft section. PAC-Tite LT downspouts are made in corrugated and round forms.

Scuppers and collector boxes

Thru-wall scuppers and collector boxes are custom designed. Non-welded units are pop-riveted, in 24 gauge steel or .040 or .050 aluminum, as dropped or raised collector boxes. Welded units are made in .063 aluminum, as dropped or raised collector boxes.

Published versions are pop-riveted dropped and raised collector boxes, welded dropped collector boxes (Style 1 and Style 3) and welded raised collector boxes (Style 1).

Finishes

Coil-coated standard colors carry a 35-year Kynar 500 finish warranty. Custom post-coated Kynar 500 colors are available on aluminum only, with a 10-year warranty included or a 20-year warranty on request. Anodized finishes are available. PAC-CLAD colors are Kynar-based 70% PVDF coatings. Gutters are installed under gutter and drainage systems work on commercial roofs.
