Fabricated from hot dip galvanized steel, this offset starting collar provides a durable, corrosion-resistant connection point where a trunk duct originates from an air handler, furnace plenum, or distribution box. The offset body pattern allows for clearance adjustments during layout, making it a practical choice when straight-line alignment is not possible. At 30 inches in length by 8 inches in width, it suits medium-capacity trunk runs. HVAC sheet metal mechanics and duct installers work with this fitting during the rough-in phase of forced-air system installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis collar takeoff is used in forced-air ducted HVAC systems where rectangular trunk duct connects to a supply or return air plenum. The offset configuration is common in residential new construction and retrofit projects where framing, joists, or mechanical obstructions require a non-centered duct departure. It is installed by licensed sheet metal workers or HVAC technicians following SMACNA and ACCA duct construction standards. The 30 x 8 inch size fits trunk duct runs that serve zone branches or primary distribution paths in single-family and small commercial applications.\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 and unconditioned spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOffset body pattern accommodates framing obstructions and non-centered duct departures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStarting collar configuration for trunk duct origination points at plenums or air handlers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRectangular profile at 30 inches x 8 inches fits standard trunk duct sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured to SMACNA and ACCA applicable standards for duct fabrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style sheet metal fitting for rectangular trunk duct systems built to SMACNA and ACCA standards in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed sheet metal workers or HVAC technicians. The air handling unit or furnace should be powered down and the system depressurized before fitting any duct collar. Secure the collar to the plenum and trunk duct using sheet metal screws and approved duct sealant or mastic per SMACNA installation guidelines. Follow local mechanical codes and ACCA Manual D duct design requirements for proper sizing and sealing.\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\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 inches Length x 8 inches Width\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Offset\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Starting, Rectangular\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: 23_30X8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWARK METAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51284125876530,"sku":"23_30X8","price":89.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309277164.jpg?v=1781069191","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwark-metal-23_30x8-trunk-duct-collar-30x8-offset","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
