Southwark Metal 90-24GA_5IN Sheet Metal Elbow 90 Degree 5 in

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 90-24GA_5IN is a 90-degree round sheet metal elbow fabricated from hot dip galvanized steel at 24 gauge thickness. Designed for use in round duct systems, this fitting redirects airflow at a 90-degree angle within supply or return air distribution networks. The 5-inch diameter inlet and outlet match standard round duct sizing, making it a direct-fit component for residential and light commercial HVAC ductwork installations. At 24 gauge, the material provides solid rigidity appropriate for low-pressure duct systems while remaining workable for sheet metal technicians in the field.

This elbow is suited for use in forced-air heating and cooling systems where round duct transitions or direction changes are required. It is commonly installed in residential furnace and air handler applications, as well as light commercial systems where round spiral or snap-lock ductwork is specified. The hot dip galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance appropriate for conditioned air environments. Fabricated in conformance with ACCA and SMACNA standards, this fitting is compatible with standard round duct systems using 5-inch diameter components.

Key Features

• 90-degree angle for right-angle duct direction changes in round duct systems
• 5-inch diameter on both inlet and outlet for direct connection to standard round duct
• 24 gauge hot dip galvanized steel construction for durability and corrosion resistance
• Meets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for sheet metal duct fittings
• Round configuration compatible with snap-lock and spiral round duct systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for residential and light commercial round duct systems using 5-inch diameter ductwork, fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed sheet metal or HVAC technician following applicable SMACNA duct construction standards. Power down the air handling system before beginning any duct modification or fitting installation. Secure connections with sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL 181-listed duct sealant or metal foil tape as required by local mechanical codes. Do not compress or deform the fitting during installation, as this will restrict airflow and reduce system performance.
