This fitting connects a round branch duct to a main trunk or plenum, providing a secure starting point for duct runs. The uncrimped end allows the installer to size and crimp on site, offering flexibility during rough-in. Fabricated from galvanized steel, it resists corrosion in typical HVAC environments. At 0.80 pounds, it is lightweight and easy to handle during installation. Sheet metal workers and HVAC technicians install this collar as part of low-pressure residential and light commercial air distribution systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis C-collar is suited for residential forced-air systems and light commercial HVAC applications where round duct branch connections are required. The 14-inch fitting size accommodates main supply or return trunk takeoffs at that diameter. It is a standard component in new construction and retrofit duct installations where galvanized round duct is the specified material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e14-inch fitting size for round duct connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncrimped end allows field crimping to match on-site requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGalvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.80 pounds for easy handling and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStarting collar design connects round branch duct to trunk or plenum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 14-inch galvanized round duct systems in residential and light commercial HVAC installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by licensed sheet metal workers or HVAC technicians.
