Conductor Heads

A conductor head is a collection box that directs incoming roof water into a downspout. Depending on the installation, it may receive water from a through-wall scupper, gutter outlet or another roof drainage detail. Its size, inlet position and outlet must suit the drainage arrangement.

Leader head, conductor head and collector box are commonly used names for similar products. Scupper box often refers to a collection box positioned outside a through-wall scupper. The scupper itself is the opening or outlet through the wall; the collection box receives the discharge and directs it into a downspout.

The best choice depends on the design, finish, surrounding materials and project requirements. Copper is a popular option, and soldered construction is available for suitable metals and designs. Painted aluminum or steel can coordinate with a colored gutter system. Confirm the material and joint construction offered for your selected model rather than assuming every design is made the same way.

Some intricate designs require many separate parts. Assembling these parts with rivets can produce more visible fasteners than the intended design allows. For that reason, K&M does not offer every profile in aluminum, steel or Galvalume Plus. Check the material options on the individual product listing.

Depending on the model, options include PAC-CLAD Kynar-finished aluminum or Galvalume steel, as well as standard 0.027-inch aluminum gutter coil. Other materials and finishes may be available by request. Confirm the base metal, thickness, finish and color for the specific conductor head you plan to order.

K&M uses mechanical assembly for these models to avoid the finish damage that heat-based joining can cause. The material and profile determine the construction method, and rivets may remain visible. Review the selected product details if fastener appearance is important to your project.

Yes. Water-carrying seams in riveted models need appropriate sealing. K&M offers a sealant option for applicable products; check the listing and your selected options rather than assuming sealing is included. Any sealant used must be compatible with the metal and finish.

Check the conductor head dimensions, incoming water location, outlet shape and size, and the connection to your downspout. Measure an existing installation before ordering a replacement. Have your project designer or installer confirm the required drainage capacity; the outside dimensions or appearance of the box alone do not establish its suitability.

Yes. K&M can review custom designs and reproduction requests. Send clear photographs, a dimensioned drawing or measured sketch, material and finish requirements, and the quantity needed. Include the inlet and outlet details so we can assess both the appearance and the required connections.

Yes. K&M offers inside and outside corner designs and can review custom corner configurations. Provide the corner angle, available wall space, inlet location and required outlet position. Not every standard model is suitable for every corner arrangement.

Availability varies by model, material, finish and quantity. Some items may be stocked, while others require fabrication. Contact K&M to confirm availability and estimated preparation time for your selection. Allow separately for shipping, especially when planning around an installation date.

Custom pricing depends on the dimensions, material, finish, design complexity and quantity. Send your specifications, drawings or photos, delivery location and requested schedule for a quote. For listed models, review the product page and selected options for available pricing.
