Southwark Metal 24R_2-1/4X12X6 Pipe Boot Elbow 2-1/4x12x6

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 24R_2-1/4X12X6 is a hot dip galvanized steel sheet metal pipe boot elbow designed for residential and light commercial HVAC duct systems. This 90-degree elbow transitions from a 6-inch round duct to a 2-1/4 inch by 12 inch rectangular register opening, making it a standard component for floor or sidewall register terminations. Fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA standards, it is built for the dimensional accuracy and fit that sheet metal installers expect on forced-air distribution work. HVAC technicians and sheet metal mechanics install this fitting during new construction and retrofit projects.

This pipe boot elbow is used where a round branch duct needs to turn and transition into a flat rectangular register boot at the floor, wall, or ceiling plane. The 2-1/4 inch by 12 inch face matches the most common residential register size, and the 6-inch round inlet connects directly to standard 6-inch round flex or rigid duct. It suits residential forced-air heating and cooling systems and is a routine component in new construction rough-in and duct replacement work performed by licensed HVAC contractors and sheet metal workers.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow configuration transitions round duct to flat register opening in a single fitting
• Hot dip galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in crawlspace, basement, and slab installations
• 2-1/4 inch by 12 inch rectangular outlet matches standard residential register face dimensions
• 6-inch round inlet connects to standard flex or rigid round duct without adapters
• Fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for dimensional consistency

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style sheet metal fitting for residential and light commercial forced-air duct systems using 6-inch round branch ducts terminating at 2-1/4 inch by 12 inch floor or sidewall registers.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed HVAC contractors or qualified sheet metal mechanics as part of forced-air duct distribution work. Shut down the air handling system before cutting into existing ductwork or securing the boot to the duct branch. Seal all joints with listed duct mastic or UL 181-rated tape per SMACNA and local mechanical code requirements. Do not compress or deform the rectangular collar during installation, as distortion will affect register fit and airflow.
