Imperial Mfg Group Usa Inc GV1350 Taper Reducer 7x6 in

Product Description

The IMPERIAL MFG GROUP USA INC GV1350 is a 24-gauge galvanized steel taper reducer designed to transition ductwork from a 7-inch diameter to a 6-inch diameter. The small end arrives factory-crimped for straightforward slip connection into the next duct section. This fitting is a standard component in forced-air HVAC duct systems, used to reduce airflow cross-section between trunk lines and branch runs. HVAC sheet metal installers and duct fabricators work with this fitting during new construction, system modification, or duct repair on residential and light commercial projects.

The GV1350 is suited for galvanized duct systems in residential and light commercial forced-air heating and cooling applications. It is used wherever a straight taper reduction from 7 inches to 6 inches is required along a duct run. The factory-crimped small end reduces field prep time and allows the fitting to insert directly into standard round duct or fittings of matching diameter. This reducer is sold in a package of 12 units, making it practical for contractors stocking common transition sizes.

Key Features

• 7-inch to 6-inch taper reduction for standard round duct transitions
• 24-gauge galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in conditioned air environments
• Small end factory-crimped for tool-free slip connection into downstream duct
• Taper geometry maintains smooth airflow transition and limits turbulence
• Sold in a package of 12 units for efficient contractor purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for residential and light commercial galvanized round duct systems requiring a 7-inch to 6-inch diameter reduction.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified sheet metal installers. Shut down the air handler or furnace and verify the system is de-energized before working on the duct. Secure the fitting with sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL 181-rated mastic or foil tape per local mechanical code requirements. Do not use this fitting in applications outside its rated gauge or diameter range.
