Southwark Metal 90-26GA_10IN Round Duct Elbow 90 Deg 10 in

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 90-26GA_10IN is a round sheet metal duct elbow designed for 90-degree directional changes in low-pressure HVAC duct systems. Fabricated from hot dip galvanized steel at 26 gauge material thickness, it delivers corrosion resistance suited for both supply and return air applications. The elbow measures 10 inches in diameter on both the inlet and outlet ends, making it a straight-size fitting with no transition required. Licensed HVAC technicians and sheet metal installers use this fitting during new duct installation or replacement work on residential and light commercial forced-air systems.

This elbow fits into round duct runs where a 90-degree turn is required, such as at wall penetrations, ceiling drops, or equipment connections. The 26 gauge galvanized construction meets ACCA and SMACNA standards for sheet metal ductwork fabrication, making it appropriate for jobs where code-compliant materials are required. It is well suited for residential forced-air furnace and air handler systems as well as light commercial applications that use round spiral or snap-lock duct.

Key Features

• 90-degree angle provides a full directional change in round duct runs
• Hot dip galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in conditioned air environments
• 26 gauge material thickness meets SMACNA and ACCA fabrication standards
• Uniform 10 inch diameter on both ends eliminates the need for a transition fitting
• Round profile compatible with standard snap-lock and spiral duct systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for round duct systems requiring a 90-degree elbow with a 10 inch diameter connection on both ends, fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified sheet metal worker in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and applicable local mechanical codes. Power down the air handler or furnace at the disconnect before working on connected ductwork. Secure the elbow to adjoining duct sections using sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL 181-rated mastic or foil tape to maintain system pressure integrity. Do not over-crimp the fitting collar, as deformation of the gauge material can compromise the joint seal.
