Southwark Metal 90-24GA_22IN Galvanized Elbow 22 in 24 Ga

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 90-24GA_22IN is a round, 90-degree sheet metal elbow fabricated from hot-dip galvanized steel at 24 gauge. Designed for large-diameter duct systems, this elbow provides a 22-inch inside diameter turn and is built to meet ACCA and SMACNA standards for commercial and industrial HVAC ductwork. The hot-dip galvanizing process gives the steel consistent corrosion resistance inside and out, making it appropriate for both supply and return air applications where longevity and structural integrity are priorities. Sheet metal contractors and HVAC installers working on larger commercial systems will find this elbow a code-compliant, ready-to-install fitting.

This elbow is suited for commercial and light-industrial HVAC installations requiring large-diameter round ductwork transitions. At 22 inches in diameter, it is typically specified on main trunk runs, air handling unit connections, or large exhaust and ventilation systems. It is intended for use in systems where duct construction must conform to SMACNA and ACCA fabrication standards, including commercial office buildings, warehouses, and institutional facilities.

Key Features

• Hot-dip galvanized steel construction provides durable corrosion resistance throughout the fitting
• 24 gauge material thickness meets SMACNA and ACCA standards for large-diameter round duct fittings
• 90-degree angle enables square directional changes in duct routing without field fabrication
• 22-inch round diameter on both inlet and outlet for consistent, no-reduction airflow transitions
• Round cross-section is compatible with standard spiral and longitudinal-seam round duct systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style round duct fitting for commercial HVAC systems using 22-inch diameter round ductwork constructed in accordance with ACCA and SMACNA standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed sheet metal contractor or qualified HVAC technician. Secure the elbow to adjoining duct sections using drive cleats, S-cleats, or sheet metal screws per SMACNA duct construction standards, and seal all joints with UL 181-listed duct sealant or mastic. Confirm the supporting structure can carry the weight of the fitting and connected ductwork before final installation. Always power down the air handling unit and lock out the system before working on any duct section.
