Air Flow Products 84DBD06 Duct Board Tab Takeoff 6 in

Product Description

The AIR FLOW PRODUCTS 84DBD06 is a duct board tab takeoff fitting with an integrated damper, sized at 6 inches for use in low-pressure residential and light commercial air distribution systems. This fitting attaches directly to duct board panels, allowing branch runs to tap off a main trunk without cutting separate damper hardware into the line. The built-in damper lets technicians balance airflow at the takeoff point rather than downstream. HVAC installers use this fitting during new construction and retrofit ductwork projects where duct board is the primary trunk material.

The 84DBD06 is suited for residential forced-air systems and light commercial applications where duct board trunk construction is standard. The 6-inch size accommodates common branch-run diameters found in single-family and small multi-family installations. Installers working with flexible duct or round branch runs will find this fitting a straightforward connection point off a duct board plenum or main trunk section.

Key Features

• Integrated damper allows airflow balancing directly at the takeoff point
• Tab-style mounting designed for direct attachment to duct board panels
• 6-inch opening accommodates standard branch-run duct sizes
• Eliminates the need for a separate damper fitting at the branch connection
• Suitable for low-pressure residential and light commercial air distribution

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for duct board trunk systems in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician familiar with Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors National Association (SMACNA) duct construction standards. The air handling system should be powered down and the supply fan de-energized before cutting into any duct board trunk. Secure the tab flanges to the duct board face using approved duct board adhesive and mechanical fasteners per local mechanical code requirements. After installation, verify damper operation and adjust for proper airflow balance before sealing the system.
