The large end measures 6 inches and the small end measures 5 inches, with the small end crimped for straightforward male-end insertion into the next pipe section. This reducer is a standard component used by HVAC technicians and installers working on solid-fuel appliance venting, wood stove installations, and gravity-vent connector runs where a step-down transition between pipe sizes is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis flue reducer is suited for residential and light-commercial applications involving single-wall black stovepipe vent connectors. It is typically installed between a larger-diameter appliance collar or flue section and a smaller-diameter continuation of the vent run. The crimped small end allows the reducer to insert directly into a standard 5-inch female-end fitting without additional modification. Installers working on wood stoves, pellet stoves, and similar solid-fuel appliances commonly use this type of fitting to match flue sizing to the appliance outlet or to adapt to an existing vent system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-inch to 5-inch diameter reduction for single-wall black stovepipe systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24-gauge black steel construction for standard vent connector service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall end crimped for direct insertion into compatible 5-inch female-end fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold in a package quantity of 12 units, suitable for stocking or multi-unit jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for single-wall black stovepipe vent connector systems requiring a 6-inch to 5-inch diameter transition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician or installer in accordance with the appliance manufacturer instructions and applicable local codes, including NFPA 211 for solid-fuel venting. Shut down and allow the appliance and existing flue to cool completely before beginning any work on the vent connector.
