Air Flow Products 84RAT14 Stick-on Takeoff 14 in

Product Description

The AIR FLOW PRODUCTS 84RAT14 is an airtight stick-on takeoff fitting designed for round duct pipe. It provides a branch connection point on a main duct run without the need for cutting or specialized tools beyond standard sheet metal work. The adhesive-backed design allows the fitting to bond directly to the duct surface, reducing air leakage at the takeoff joint. At 14 inches in diameter, this fitting suits larger trunk-line branch connections commonly found in commercial and residential forced-air distribution systems. HVAC installers and sheet metal mechanics are the primary trades working with this component.

This takeoff is suited for use in forced-air HVAC duct systems where round branch connections are required off a main supply or return trunk. The stick-on design is particularly useful in retrofit and new-construction scenarios where minimizing duct penetration labor is a priority. It is appropriate for both residential and light commercial applications where round pipe distribution is the standard configuration.

Key Features

• Airtight construction minimizes air leakage at branch takeoff connections
• Stick-on adhesive backing allows direct attachment to round duct pipe surface
• 14-inch round opening suits larger branch runs in supply or return duct systems
• Designed for round pipe duct systems in forced-air HVAC applications
• Reduces labor compared to traditional cut-in takeoff methods

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard installation fitting for round duct takeoff connections in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician or sheet metal mechanic. Power down the air handling unit and close associated dampers before working on the duct system. Ensure the duct surface is clean and dry before applying the adhesive backing for a secure, airtight bond. Follow local mechanical codes and SMACNA duct construction standards for proper takeoff placement and sealing requirements.
