Southwark Metal 24R_6X12X8 Pipe Boot Elbow 6x12x8

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 24R_6X12X8 is a sheet metal pipe boot elbow designed to transition from round duct to a rectangular floor or wall register opening. Built from hot dip galvanized steel, this fitting delivers the corrosion resistance required for long-term performance in residential and light commercial forced-air duct systems. The 90-degree elbow configuration allows the round collar to turn and terminate at a flat register face, making it a standard component wherever a round branch duct meets a 6-inch by 12-inch register opening. HVAC sheet metal installers and duct fabricators rely on this type of fitting to complete supply air outlets cleanly and in compliance with ACCA and SMACNA standards.

This pipe boot elbow is used in forced-air HVAC duct installations where a round supply duct must terminate at a rectangular register face on a floor, wall, or ceiling. The rectangular opening measures 6 inches by 12 inches and accepts standard register grilles of that size. The round collar measures 8 inches in diameter and connects directly to 8-inch round duct or spiral pipe. The 90-degree bend is integral to the boot, eliminating the need for a separate elbow fitting at the register end. This fitting suits residential new construction, renovation, and light commercial duct work where register boots are field-installed by sheet metal contractors.

Key Features

• Hot dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in supply air applications
• 90-degree elbow profile transitions round duct to a flat register face in a single fitting
• 6-inch by 12-inch rectangular register opening accepts standard grille sizes
• 8-inch diameter round collar connects to 8-inch round duct or spiral pipe
• Meets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for sheet metal duct fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style sheet metal duct fitting compatible with standard 8-inch round duct systems terminating at 6-inch by 12-inch rectangular register openings, per ACCA and SMACNA duct construction standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed sheet metal contractors or HVAC technicians following SMACNA duct construction standards and applicable local mechanical codes. The round collar should be secured to the branch duct with sheet metal screws and sealed with mastic or UL 181-rated tape before the register grille is attached. Always shut down the air handling unit and isolate the system before cutting into existing ductwork to install this fitting. Do not use this fitting in return-air applications without verifying the system design.
