Fabricated from hot dip galvanized steel, this boot measures 6 inches by 12 inches at the register opening (Size A) and accepts an 8-inch diameter round duct at the pipe end (Size B). The center-end configuration positions the round collar at the center of the rectangular boot, making it a standard choice for straight-drop supply trunk-to-register transitions. HVAC sheet metal installers and duct fabricators are the primary tradespeople who work with this fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pipe boot is suited for residential forced-air supply systems and light commercial duct installations where a rectangular register opening meets a round branch duct. The 6-inch by 12-inch face fits standard 6x12 floor or ceiling register openings, while the 8-inch collar connects directly to 8-inch round duct. It is installed in new construction and retrofit applications where trunk-to-register transitions require a factory-fabricated fitting that meets ACCA and SMACNA duct construction standards.\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-space and crawlspace installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6 inch by 12 inch rectangular register face fits standard 6x12 register openings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-inch diameter round collar for direct connection to 8-inch round branch duct\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter-end collar placement supports straight-drop and in-line duct routing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFabricated to ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for duct fitting construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style sheet metal fitting for residential and light commercial forced-air duct systems requiring a 6 inch by 12 inch register boot with an 8-inch center-end round collar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified sheet metal workers. Shut down the air handler and de-energize the system before making duct connections. Secure the boot to the register opening and round duct using sheet metal screws and UL 181-listed duct tape or mastic sealant in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards. Do not compress or over-crimp the collar, as this restricts airflow through the branch run.\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\u003eRegister Opening (Size A)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches x 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRound Collar Diameter (Size B)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Center\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Register\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: 28R_6X12X8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWARK METAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51284032848178,"sku":"28R_6X12X8","price":15.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309278640.jpg?v=1781066686","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwark-metal-28r_6x12x8-sheet-metal-pipe-boot-6x12","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
