Southwark Metal 58_6X5 Sheet Metal Pipe Reducer 6x5 Inch

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 58_6X5 is a 3-piece sheet metal pipe reducer designed to transition round duct runs from a 6-inch diameter down to a 5-inch diameter. Constructed from hot dip galvanized steel, this no-crimp reducer provides a secure, leak-resistant connection between duct sections in forced-air HVAC systems. The galvanized finish resists corrosion in both conditioned and unconditioned spaces. Licensed HVAC technicians and sheet metal installers use this fitting when reducing trunk lines or branch runs to match diffuser, register, or equipment collar sizing.

This reducer is suited for residential and light commercial forced-air duct systems where a step-down transition is needed between round duct sections. It conforms to ACCA and SMACNA standards, making it appropriate for installations that require verified duct design and fabrication compliance. The 3-piece construction provides consistent geometry and a reliable fit in standard round duct assemblies.

Key Features

• Transitions from 6-inch diameter to 5-inch diameter round duct
• Hot dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance
• No-crimp design for use with slip or drive connections
• 3-piece construction for consistent dimensional accuracy
• Meets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for residential and light commercial round duct systems requiring a 6-inch to 5-inch diameter reduction in accordance with ACCA and SMACNA duct construction standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified sheet metal installer. Power down the air handling system at the disconnect before working on duct sections. Secure the reducer using sheet metal screws and seal all joints with listed duct sealant or foil tape per SMACNA guidelines. Do not force or distort the fitting during installation, as this can compromise the connection and airflow performance.
