Southwark Metal 127_8IN Oval to Round Pipe Boot 8x8

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 127_8IN is a straight oval-to-round sheet metal pipe boot designed for ducted HVAC systems where an oval duct opening must transition to a round collar. Fabricated from hot-dip galvanized steel, this boot resists corrosion in both supply and return air applications. The crimp end allows for direct connection to standard round duct pipe or fittings without additional adapters. HVAC sheet metal installers and duct fabricators use this fitting when building or extending residential and light commercial duct systems that require a geometry change at a wall, floor, or ceiling penetration.

This pipe boot is suited for low-velocity ducted air distribution systems in residential and light commercial construction. It fits at the terminal end of an oval duct run where the duct must transition to a round pipe before connecting to a register boot, branch takeoff, or in-line fitting. The 8-inch by 8-inch profile accommodates standard framing cavities. Fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA standards, it is appropriate for new construction and retrofit duct replacement work.

Key Features

• Straight oval-to-round geometry transitions oval duct to round pipe in a single fitting
• Hot-dip galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for long service life
• Crimp end connects directly to standard round sheet metal duct pipe
• 8 inches x 8 inches sizing fits common residential framing cavities
• Fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for residential and light commercial sheet metal duct systems requiring an oval-to-round straight transition at 8-inch by 8-inch duct openings.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or sheet metal duct installers. Power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect before working on the duct system. Secure the crimp end into the mating round duct with sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL 181-rated mastic or foil tape per SMACNA duct construction standards. Avoid over-crimping the collar, which can reduce effective airflow area.
