Constructed from hot dip galvanized steel, this collar provides a durable, corrosion-resistant connection point between supply trunk lines and branch runs. The 14-inch size and 1-1\/2-inch tab allow for secure insertion and seating into ductboard panel cutouts. HVAC technicians and sheet metal fabricators install this fitting during new construction and replacement duct system work where ductboard is the primary distribution medium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis collar tap is used in residential and light commercial HVAC ductwork applications where fiberglass ductboard panels serve as the supply or return air distribution system. It is installed at the point where a branch duct or register boot transitions off the main ductboard trunk. The 1-1\/2-inch tab locks the collar in place against the ductboard surface, creating a secure, low-leakage connection that supports proper airflow distribution throughout the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHot dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in HVAC air-distribution environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e14-inch collar size for standard ductboard trunk takeoff connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/2-inch tab provides positive mechanical retention against ductboard panel face\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for duct system fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with typical ductboard panel installation and foil-tape sealing methods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style sheet metal fitting for use with fiberglass ductboard duct systems in residential and light commercial HVAC installations conforming to ACCA and SMACNA standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified sheet metal installers.
