This fitting changes airflow direction at a 90-degree angle using a short-radius geometry, which suits installations where available space is limited. The nominal duct opening measures 16 x 10 inches. Licensed HVAC technicians and sheet metal contractors install this fitting during new construction and retrofit duct system work to route supply or return air around structural obstructions while maintaining system airflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis elbow is used in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems where rectangular ductwork transitions or direction changes are required. The shortway orientation means the 16-inch dimension runs parallel to the direction of the turn, making it the preferred choice when ceiling or wall clearance is the limiting factor. It connects inline with standard rectangular duct sections and is typically sealed with mastic or metal-backed tape per system requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e90-degree radius bend for directional airflow routing in rectangular duct systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShortway vertical orientation suits tight installation clearances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16 x 10 inch opening fits standard rectangular duct sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSheet metal construction for durability in forced-air applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with mastic sealant or metal-backed tape for airtight connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for residential and light commercial rectangular sheet metal duct systems with 16 x 10 inch duct openings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified sheet metal contractor in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and applicable local mechanical codes. Power down the air handling unit before working on connected ductwork. Secure the elbow to adjacent duct sections with sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL 181-rated mastic or metal-backed tape to maintain system static pressure and prevent air leakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuct Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16 x 10 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElbow Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Shortway Vertical 90 Degree Radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuct Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rectangular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sheet Metal\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: 1140R1610\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWARK METAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51347433029938,"sku":"1140R1610","price":83.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310555303.jpg?v=1782104808","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwark-metal-1140r1610-shortway-vertical-90-degree-elbow","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
