Southwark Metal 27R_6X10X5 Sheet Metal Pipe Boot

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 27R_6X10X5 is a straight sheet metal pipe boot designed to transition from round duct to a rectangular register opening in residential and light commercial HVAC duct systems. Fabricated from hot dip galvanized steel, this boot provides a durable, corrosion-resistant connection point at the floor, ceiling, or wall termination of a supply or return air run. The rectangular opening measures 6 inches by 10 inches, and the round collar measures 5 inches in diameter. HVAC installers and sheet metal contractors use this fitting when terminating a 5-inch round duct into a standard 6x10 register or grille opening.

This pipe boot is suited for residential forced-air systems and light commercial applications where a straight boot configuration is required. The straight design positions the round collar directly below the register face, making it a common choice for floor-mounted supply registers in new construction and retrofit duct installations. It is compatible with standard 6x10 registers and grilles and connects to 5-inch round flexible or rigid duct.

Key Features

• Hot dip galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in exposed subfloor and wall cavity environments
• Straight configuration aligns round collar directly with register face for clean floor or ceiling terminations
• 6 inch by 10 inch register opening fits standard residential supply and return grilles
• 5 inch diameter round collar connects to standard round flex or rigid metal duct
• Meets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for duct fabrication and installation

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 6x10 floor, ceiling, or wall registers and 5-inch round duct in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician or sheet metal contractor. Shut down the air handling system and relieve any static pressure in the duct before fitting the boot. Secure the boot to the subfloor or framing with appropriate sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL 181-rated mastic or foil tape in accordance with local mechanical codes and SMACNA guidelines. Do not compress flexible duct connections at the collar, as this restricts airflow and reduces system efficiency.
