Sized at 7 inches by 5 inches, it transitions airflow between two different duct diameters without the need for a crimped end, making field connections straightforward and consistent. Fabricated from 28-gauge galvanized steel, this fitting delivers durable corrosion resistance suited to supply and return duct runs. HVAC sheet metal installers and mechanical contractors reach for this type of fitting when a smooth, concentric diameter change is required in a duct trunk or branch line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis taper reducer and increaser is used in forced-air heating and cooling systems where duct diameter changes are needed along a trunk run or at a branch takeoff transition. The no-crimp end design allows the installer to size and secure the connection using standard drive cleats, slip joints, or sheet metal screws without pre-crimping one end on-site. Sold in a package quantity of 12 units, this fitting is well suited for contractors stocking materials for multi-unit residential projects or repeat service work where this transition size is commonly encountered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7 inches by 5 inches concentric taper transition for smooth airflow diameter change\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e28-gauge galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in duct applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo-crimp end design simplifies field installation and joint assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard sheet metal drive cleats, slip connections, and fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackaged in quantities of 12 for contractor-volume purchasing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and new-construction fitting for round galvanized duct systems requiring a 7-inch to 5-inch diameter transition in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or sheet metal mechanics. Power down the air handling equipment before working on any connected ductwork. Secure the fitting using sheet metal screws, drive cleats, or slip-joint connectors appropriate for 28-gauge material, and seal all joints with UL 181-listed duct tape or mastic sealant per local mechanical code requirements. Do not overtighten fasteners, as thin-gauge galvanized material can deform at the connection point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarge End Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall End Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGauge\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28 GA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: No Crimp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.65 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\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: IMPERIAL MFG GROUP USA INC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: GV0786\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IMPERIAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51560442495282,"sku":"GV0786","price":167.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3e8498b1784b47b0c2d13723e948a5dc_d02f5100-3a86-4495-9ba7-44c22768ae6d.jpg?v=1786452645","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/imperial-mfg-group-usa-inc-gv0786-taper-reducer-7x5-28ga","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
