Southwark Metal 27R_6X10X6 Sheet Metal Pipe Boot Straight

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 27R_6X10X6 is a straight sheet metal pipe boot designed to transition from a rectangular duct opening to a round pipe connection in forced-air HVAC distribution systems. Constructed from hot dip galvanized steel, this register boot provides a durable, corrosion-resistant fitting for connecting supply or return duct runs to floor, wall, or ceiling registers. The boot measures 6 inches by 10 inches at the rectangular collar (Size A) and accepts a 6-inch diameter round pipe at the opposite end (Size B). HVAC sheet metal contractors and mechanical installers use this fitting in residential and light commercial duct fabrication and rough-in work.

This pipe boot is suited for low-pressure forced-air supply and return duct systems where a standard rectangular-to-round transition is required at the register or grille termination point. It is appropriate for new construction rough-in as well as replacement of damaged or corroded fittings in existing ductwork. The straight configuration keeps the transition direct and compact, making it a common choice in tight floor joist bays and stud wall cavities where angled fittings will not fit.

Key Features

• Hot dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in humid or unconditioned space installations
• Straight register boot configuration for direct rectangular-to-round transitions
• 6 inch by 10 inch rectangular opening (Size A) mates to standard register and grille face sizes
• 6 inch diameter round collar (Size B) connects directly to 6-inch round duct or flex duct
• Fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for residential and commercial duct systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style sheet metal fitting for use in residential and light commercial forced-air duct systems requiring a straight rectangular-to-round register boot transition with a 6 inch by 10 inch face opening and a 6 inch round collar.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC sheet metal contractor or mechanical technician familiar with SMACNA duct construction standards. Power down the air handling unit and close the system before cutting into or modifying existing ductwork. Secure the boot to the duct and framing using sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL 181-listed mastic or foil tape to prevent air leakage. Verify register or grille face dimensions match the 6 inch by 10 inch opening before fastening the finished grille or register.
