Southwark Metal 62_6IN Duct Takeoff 6 Inch Square to Round

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 62_6IN is a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet metal duct takeoff designed for transitioning from a square or rectangular trunk duct to a 6-inch round branch run. Sized at 6 inches on both the inlet and outlet, this top-configuration fitting connects at the top face of the main duct and redirects airflow into a round collar. It is fabricated to meet ACCA and SMACNA standards, making it appropriate for forced-air HVAC distribution systems in residential and light commercial construction. HVAC sheet metal mechanics and ductwork installers are the primary trades working with this fitting.

This takeoff is used in supply-air trunk-and-branch duct systems where a round branch line must be tapped from the top of a rectangular or square plenum or trunk. The top-mount orientation suits installations where branch ducts run upward into floor or ceiling cavities. At 6 inches in diameter, this fitting is a common size for individual room supply drops or short branch runs in residential forced-air systems.

Key Features

• Hot-dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in HVAC duct environments
• Top-mount, square-to-round configuration for trunk-to-branch transitions
• 6-inch inlet and 6-inch round outlet for consistent airflow sizing
• Meets ACCA and SMACNA fabrication standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style sheet metal duct fitting for use in forced-air HVAC supply systems requiring a top-mount square-to-round takeoff at 6 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified sheet metal mechanics. The air handler or furnace blower should be shut down and the system depressurized before cutting into an existing duct trunk. Sheet metal screws and duct mastic or UL 181-rated tape are typically used to secure and seal the fitting. Work should conform to SMACNA duct construction standards and applicable local mechanical codes.
