Imperial Mfg Group Usa Inc BM0044 Stove Pipe Slip Connector

Product Description

The IMPERIAL MFG GROUP USA INC BM0044 is a black stove pipe slip connector designed for single-wall solid fuel venting systems. Sized at 8 inches in diameter and fabricated from 24-gauge steel with a black finish, this connector provides a secure slip-fit joint between sections of black stove pipe. It is typically installed by HVAC technicians or chimney professionals during the assembly or repair of wood-burning stove vent runs. The slip design allows for straightforward length adjustment and alignment before final seating, reducing installation time on standard vent assemblies.

This connector is suited for residential solid fuel appliance venting, including wood stoves and pellet stoves that require single-wall black stove pipe connections. It is used in interior vent runs where the pipe transitions between appliance collar and thimble or between pipe sections. This SKU is packaged in a quantity of 10 units, making it appropriate for service contractors stocking multiple connectors for repeat installations or larger jobs.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician or chimney professional in accordance with local building codes and NFPA 211 requirements for solid fuel venting systems. Ensure the connected appliance is fully cooled and isolated before beginning any vent assembly or disassembly. Slip connectors must be fully seated and secured with sheet metal screws per manufacturer and code requirements to prevent joint separation. Do not use single-wall black stove pipe in concealed locations, attic spaces, or through combustible walls without the appropriate thimble or listed assembly.
