Constructed from hot dip galvanized steel, this frame provides a corrosion-resistant mounting surface for return air grilles and registers. It installs into duct openings to create a clean, secure border that holds the register face in place. HVAC technicians and sheet metal contractors use this type of frame in both new construction and retrofit work where a finished return air opening is required at a wall, floor, or ceiling transition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis frame is sized at 12 inches by 6 inches and is suited for residential and light commercial forced-air systems. It fits into standard duct rough openings of the corresponding dimension and is compatible with return air grille faces that match its frame footprint. The galvanized steel construction holds up in unconditioned spaces such as crawlspaces, attics, and wall cavities where moisture exposure is a concern. Sheet metal installers typically use this frame as part of a complete return air boot and grille assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHot dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in varied install environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12 inch by 6 inch frame size fits standard return air duct openings of the same dimension\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for return air applications in forced-air HVAC duct systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for sheet metal duct fabrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProvides a clean, finished border for return air grille and register installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style sheet metal duct register frame for return air grille installations in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC ductwork systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed sheet metal contractor or HVAC technician. The air handling system should be powered down and the blower disabled before opening duct sections or inserting frames into the duct opening. Secure the frame according to SMACNA sheet metal duct construction standards using appropriate fasteners for the substrate. Do not restrict the return air opening with oversized framing or sealant applied across the face opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches x 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hot Dip Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Return Air\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: 31_12X6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWARK METAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51283944833330,"sku":"31_12X6","price":15.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309277791.jpg?v=1781063847","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwark-metal-31_12x6-duct-register-frame-12x6-return-air","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
