Fabricated from hot dip galvanized steel, this fitting delivers corrosion resistance and structural integrity in both supply and return air duct assemblies. At 20 inches by 8 inches, it provides a clean, reliable connection point where a branch run or main trunk begins at the air handling equipment. HVAC sheet metal installers and duct fabricators rely on this type of fitting to maintain system airflow geometry and ensure airtight starting points in low-pressure duct systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis collar is suited for residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC installations where rectangular duct construction is specified. It is used at the trunk starting point, typically off a plenum or air handler discharge, and is compatible with standard sheet metal trunk duct assemblies built to SMACNA and ACCA guidelines. The straight body pattern allows for direct in-line transitions without offset, making it straightforward to fit into new construction and retrofit duct layouts alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHot dip galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for long-term duct system performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight body pattern allows direct in-line installation without offset or transition complications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStarting collar configuration designed for trunk duct takeoff connection points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20 inch by 8 inch nominal size fits standard rectangular duct dimensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for sheet metal duct fabrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and new-construction fitting for rectangular sheet metal trunk duct systems built to SMACNA and ACCA standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed sheet metal mechanic or HVAC technician familiar with SMACNA duct construction standards. Shut down the air handling system and verify the system is de-energized before beginning duct work. Secure all joints with appropriate sheet metal screws and seal with listed duct sealant or mastic per local mechanical code requirements. Do not substitute this fitting in high-pressure duct classifications beyond its rated application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hot Dip Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 inches x 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Starting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplicable Standards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACCA, SMACNA\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: 20_20X8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWARK METAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51284005880114,"sku":"20_20X8","price":27.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309277150.jpg?v=1781065792","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwark-metal-20_20x8-trunk-duct-collar-20x8-inches","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
