This gear-clamp-style draw band is used to secure round sheet metal duct connections in forced-air HVAC systems. The galvanized construction resists corrosion in both residential and light commercial ductwork environments. HVAC sheet metal mechanics and duct installers reach for draw bands like this when making field connections between duct sections, fittings, and collars where a tight, reliable mechanical seal is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis draw band is suited for 7-inch round duct connections in supply and return air systems. It is appropriate for use in residential forced-air heating and cooling installations as well as light commercial applications where ACCA and SMACNA ductwork standards apply. The 28-gauge hot dip galvanized steel construction meets the material requirements commonly referenced in SMACNA duct construction standards, making it a practical choice for code-compliant sheet metal duct assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHot dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in ductwork environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e28-gauge material thickness meets SMACNA duct construction requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGear clamp draw band design provides consistent circumferential clamping force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSized for 7-inch round sheet metal duct connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 7-inch round sheet metal duct sections and fittings in forced-air HVAC systems built to ACCA and SMACNA standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed sheet metal mechanics or HVAC technicians. The duct system should be de-energized and the air handler or furnace shut down before making duct connections. Draw bands should be seated squarely over the duct joint and tightened evenly to achieve a uniform seal. Follow SMACNA duct construction guidelines and local mechanical codes for joint fastening requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hot Dip Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28 Gauge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gear Clamp Draw Band\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplicable Standards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACCA, SMACNA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SOUTHWARK METAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 96-28GA_7IN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWARK METAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51284110672178,"sku":"96-28GA_7IN","price":17.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309276999.jpg?v=1781068779","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwark-metal-96-28ga_7in-duct-draw-band-28-gauge-7-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
