This fitting connects branch ducts to duct board trunk lines using a tab-style locking mechanism, providing a secure, low-leakage connection without adhesive. The built-in damper allows airflow balancing at the branch point, giving installers control over zone distribution without adding a separate balancing damper downstream. HVAC installers and sheet metal technicians are the primary trades who work with this fitting during new construction and retrofit duct fabrication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is used with duct board trunk systems where branch takeoffs are required at supply air distribution points. The tab design is compatible with standard duct board fabrication practices, allowing the fitting to be inserted and locked into a field-cut opening in the duct board panel. The integral damper is useful in multi-branch systems where airflow balancing across supply runs is needed. Typical applications include residential forced-air systems and light commercial HVAC installations where duct board is the primary trunk material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-inch diameter branch connection for standard round duct or flex duct attachment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated damper for on-site airflow balancing at the branch takeoff point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTab-style locking design secures to duct board trunk without adhesive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuits new construction and retrofit duct board system installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEliminates need for a separate balancing damper on the branch run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for duct board trunk systems requiring an 8-inch tab-style branch takeoff with damper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified sheet metal installer. Shut down the air handling system and verify the system is de-energized before cutting into any existing duct board trunk. The takeoff opening in the duct board panel should be sized to match the fitting tab pattern per the manufacturer instructions to ensure a secure, low-leakage fit. Work should comply with applicable mechanical codes, including SMACNA duct construction standards and local jurisdiction requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tab Takeoff with Damper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Duct Board Trunk Systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: AIR FLOW PRODUCTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 84DB208\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"AIR FLOW PRODUCTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51345404494130,"sku":"84DB208","price":24.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310553294.jpg?v=1782057284","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/air-flow-products-84db208-duct-board-tab-takeoff-8-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
