This fitting allows a 90-degree direction change in a tight space, making it a go-to solution when duct height is the limiting dimension rather than width. At 2.25 inches by 14 inches, it fits standard rectangular duct sections used in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems. HVAC technicians and sheet metal installers use this type of fitting during new construction and retrofit trunk-and-branch duct installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis shortway elbow is suited for supply or return air duct systems where space constraints prevent the use of a longway elbow. Typical install locations include basement ceiling chases, floor joist bays, and tight mechanical room transitions. The 2.25-inch throat dimension means this fitting works within very shallow duct configurations, common in slab-on-grade or low-clearance applications. The 14-inch width dimension accommodates moderate to higher airflow branch and trunk runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShortway 90-degree elbow geometry for tight-clearance duct runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.25 x 14 inch rectangular profile fits standard sheet metal duct sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSheet metal construction for durability in forced-air duct systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for supply or return air applications in residential and light commercial HVAC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and new-construction fitting compatible with standard 2.25 x 14 inch rectangular sheet metal duct systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians or sheet metal workers. Shut down the air handling system before modifying any duct section. Secure the fitting to adjoining duct with sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL 181-rated mastic or foil tape per local mechanical code requirements. Avoid over-crimping the collar ends, as this can reduce the effective cross-section and restrict airflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuct Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuct Height (Throat)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElbow Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Shortway 90-Degree\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuct Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rectangular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SOUTHWARK METAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1040214\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWARK METAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51284019872050,"sku":"1040214","price":31.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309277028.jpg?v=1781066246","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwark-metal-1040214-shortway-elbow-2-25x14-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
