The Mighty Gutter Fastener
Alu-Rex Ultra-Durable Fastening Systems
Your standard eavestrough fastens to your house using either spikes or hangers. Gaps between spikes or hangers create weak spots.
Spikes fasten the eavestrough through the eavestrough and the ferule. Hangers fasten the eavestrough to the residence by snapping onto the inside of the eavestrough.
With the Alu-Rex T-Rex continuous fastening system, there are no weak spots. The T-Rex M-5200 hanger fastens the eavestrough by snapping onto the inside of the eavestrough - offering continuous
support. The T-Rex M-5800 offers continuous support, fastening the eavestrough to the residence by snapping on top of the eavestrough.
Alu-Rex Continuous fastening systems:
- Are ultra solid & durable
- Prevent water infiltration
- Allow eavestrough functionality in the winter
- Prevent unsightly black tigerstripes.

Water Infiltration |
Dirty Eavestrough |
| Problem Regular spikes/hangers are spaced out and, therefore, create weak spots. Eavestrough is weak and will warp due to: -The weight of snow/ice -Expansion of ice freezing & melting -The weight of ladders |
Problem An eavestrough filled with snow and ice is not functional in the winter. When it rains or temperatures rise, the water seeps into the residence through the fascia board and roof since it cannot drain normally. |
Problem Leaves and debris clog the eavestrough and prevent water from emptying. When it rains, the water seeps into the residence through the fascia board and roof since it cannot evacuate normally. |
Problem When it rains, water catches accumulated dust and drips along the eavestrough. Unsightly tigerstripes streak the front of the eavestrough. |
Solution The T-Rex continuous hangers do not have any weak spots and can support: -The weight of snow/ice -The weight of ladders In addition, since ice does not accumulate inside the eavestrough, there is no risk of warping. |
Solution With T-Rex, snow and ice remain on top of the continuous hanger, leaving the eavestrough functional. When it rains or temperatures rise, water drains normally. |
Solution Leaves and debris do not enter the eavestrough and, therefore, it does not get clogged. When it rains, water evacuates the eavestrough normally. In addition, the screws used to fasten the T-Rex are self-sealing. |
Solution The drip-edge on the T-Rex (M-5800 option) causes water to fall direcly to the ground and, therefore, prevents the formation of tigerstripes visible from the ground. |
