Built to 30 gauge steel, this free flow tee measures 8 inches by 8 inches by 8 inches and meets ACCA and SMACNA fabrication standards. The hot dip galvanizing process provides corrosion resistance suitable for both supply and return duct applications. HVAC sheet metal contractors and mechanical installers use this fitting where a straight-run tee connection is required in rectangular or round trunk duct systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tee is suited for residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC installations. The free flow design minimizes turbulence and static pressure loss at branch takeoff points, supporting efficient system airflow balance. It fits into new construction and retrofit duct layouts where an 8-inch by 8-inch by 8-inch tee connection is required. Mechanical contractors working to SMACNA duct construction standards will find this fitting consistent with standard seam and gauge requirements for that size class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHot dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in conditioned air applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30 gauge steel consistent with SMACNA standards for this duct size range\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFree flow tee geometry reduces static pressure loss at branch connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 inches by 8 inches by 8 inches nominal size for direct trunk-to-branch transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for sheet metal ductwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard OEM-style sheet metal fitting for use in residential and light commercial forced-air duct systems built to SMACNA and ACCA ductwork construction guidelines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed HVAC sheet metal contractor in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and local mechanical code requirements. Seal all joints with listed duct sealant or mastic and drive cleats or screws per SMACNA connection requirements for the gauge and pressure class. Shut down the air handling system and de-energize associated equipment before cutting into existing ductwork. Do not use this fitting in exhaust, grease, or hazardous exhaust applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hot Dip Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGauge\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 gauge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches x 8 inches x 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Free Flow Tee\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplicable Standards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACCA, SMACNA\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: SOUTHWARK METAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1060_8IN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWARK METAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51284114407730,"sku":"1060_8IN","price":21.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309277137.jpg?v=1781068897","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwark-metal-1060_8in-steel-pipe-tee-8x8x8-inch-free-flow","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
