This reducer features a no-crimp end design, which allows it to connect directly to other no-crimp fittings and duct sections without requiring an additional crimping step during installation. That saves time on the job and reduces the number of extra fittings needed at the connection point. The 582018 is fabricated from hot-dipped galvanized steel meeting ASTM A653 CS Type B standards. This material standard ensures consistent coating adhesion and base metal quality, making the fitting suitable for standard residential and light commercial forced-air systems. The galvanized coating protects against corrosion and rust, extending the service life of the duct system even in humid or unconditioned spaces such as attics, crawl spaces, and mechanical rooms. The fitting is manufactured in the USA and carries a Prop 65 designation, which is relevant for jobs in California. At 28 gauge, the steel provides a balance of rigidity and workability that HVAC sheet metal installers expect from a quality trunk-line reducer. The reducer measures 20 inches in length and 20 inches in width at the large end, stepping down to 18 inches at the small end, with a height of 10.75 inches. The unit weight is 4 pounds. This fitting is sold individually and is part of Southwark's Product Family 58, a well-known line of galvanized sheet metal duct fittings used by HVAC contractors across residential and commercial projects. HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and mechanical contractors working on forced-air systems will find this reducer a reliable and code-compliant solution for reducing duct diameter in a trunk line or branch run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo-crimp end design for fast, tool-free connections to matching duct and fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHot-dipped galvanized steel per ASTM A653 CS Type B for corrosion resistance and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA at 28 gauge for consistent quality and workability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eProduct Highlights\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Southwark Metal 582018 3-piece duct reducer delivers a reliable 20-inch to 18-inch transition in galvanized steel with a no-crimp end, making it a practical choice for HVAC sheet metal contractors who need a fast, durable duct connection on residential and commercial jobs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 582018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 inches to 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGauge\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28 GA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hot-Dipped Galvanized per ASTM A653 CS Type B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: No Crimp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePieces\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-Piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 099274520727\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProp 65\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWARK METAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51120795418930,"sku":"0582018","price":37.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/304885219.webp?v=1777739927","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwark-metal-582018-3-piece-duct-reducer-20-inches-x-18-inches-no-crimp-galvanized-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
