Southwark Metal 1041214 Angle Shortway 2-1/4 X 14

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 1041214 is a short-radius angle fitting designed for rectangular sheet metal ductwork in residential and light commercial HVAC systems. This shortway elbow directs airflow through a 90-degree turn along the short dimension of the duct, making it the right choice when installation space is limited. The fitting measures 2-1/4 inches by 14 inches and is fabricated to standard sheet metal duct dimensions. Licensed HVAC installers and sheet metal mechanics select this type of fitting when routing supply or return air runs through tight framing cavities, floor systems, or wall chases.

Shortway angle fittings are commonly used in low-profile supply trunk-and-branch duct systems, particularly in residential new construction and retrofit applications where headroom is restricted. The 2-1/4-inch throat dimension suits slim-duct runs typically found in floor register systems and between-joist duct installations. This fitting integrates with standard rectangular duct sections and related fittings used throughout residential forced-air systems.

Key Features

• Short-radius 90-degree angle design for space-constrained duct routing
• 2-1/4 x 14 inch cross-section matches standard slim-duct dimensions
• Shortway orientation turns airflow along the short axis of the duct
• Fabricated for use in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems
• Designed to connect with standard rectangular sheet metal duct sections

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style sheet metal fitting for use with standard 2-1/4 x 14 inch rectangular duct runs in residential forced-air HVAC systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or sheet metal mechanics in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and local mechanical codes. Secure all joints with sheet metal screws and seal with UL-listed duct sealant or foil tape to maintain system airtightness. Ensure the duct run is fully de-energized and the air handler is shut down before beginning any ductwork modification or connection work.
