Southwark Metal mc-83eg-6x10x6r8 Insulated End Box R-8

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL mc-83eg-6x10x6r8 is an R-8 insulated sheet metal end box designed for use in forced-air HVAC duct systems. This non-flanged end box provides a factory-insulated enclosure at duct termination points, helping maintain thermal performance and reducing heat gain or loss at the end of a duct run. Measuring 6 x 10 x 6 inches, it is fabricated from sheet metal and ships ready for field installation. HVAC sheet metal installers and mechanical contractors typically specify this type of component during new construction or duct retrofit work.

This insulated end box is suited for residential and light commercial forced-air applications where duct runs terminate at a supply outlet or transition point. The R-8 insulation rating makes it appropriate for unconditioned spaces such as attics, crawlspaces, and mechanical rooms where thermal efficiency is a priority. The non-flanged design allows for flexible field connection methods based on the installer's preferred fastening approach.

Key Features

• R-8 factory insulation rating for use in unconditioned or semi-conditioned spaces
• Non-flanged end configuration for flexible field connection
• Sheet metal construction for durability in forced-air duct systems
• Compact 6 x 10 x 6 inch profile fits standard duct layout clearances
• Ready for installation without additional insulation wrapping at the box

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style sheet metal end box for use in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC duct systems requiring R-8 insulated termination components.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or sheet metal mechanic in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and applicable local mechanical codes. Shut down the air handling unit and de-energize associated equipment before beginning duct work. Secure all connections with approved fasteners and seal seams with UL 181-rated mastic or tape to maintain system integrity. Do not compress or damage the insulation layer during handling or installation, as this will reduce the effective R-value.
