Southwark Metal SL24-24GA_7IN Round Galvanized Pipe 24GA 7in

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL SL24-24GA_7IN is a round galvanized sheet metal pipe section used in low-pressure forced-air duct systems. Fabricated from hot-dip galvanized steel at 24 gauge, this pipe measures 7 inches in diameter and 24 inches in length. The snap-lock seam construction allows fast field assembly without additional fasteners at the longitudinal joint. HVAC installers and sheet metal contractors use this pipe as a core component in trunk-and-branch and radial duct layouts for residential and light commercial air distribution. It meets ACCA and SMACNA standards for ductwork fabrication, making it suitable for permitted installations where referenced standards are required by code.

This pipe section is appropriate for supply and return air duct runs in residential forced-air heating and cooling systems, as well as light commercial applications where round galvanized duct is specified. It is commonly installed in attics, crawlspaces, basements, and mechanical rooms. The 7-inch diameter fits standard fittings, collars, and take-offs designed for 7-inch round duct. Sheet metal mechanics and HVAC installers working to SMACNA or ACCA duct design guidelines will find this section compatible with conventional round duct systems.

Key Features

• Hot-dip galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in typical HVAC environments
• 24 gauge material thickness meets SMACNA round duct fabrication requirements
• Snap-lock seam allows quick longitudinal joint closure during installation
• 7-inch diameter fits standard round duct fittings, boots, and collars
• 24-inch length provides a manageable section for straight duct runs and transitions
• Compliant with ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for duct systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-construction component for 7-inch round galvanized duct systems fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or certified sheet metal mechanic in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and local mechanical codes. Power down the air handling unit and isolate the system before connecting or disconnecting duct sections. Secure joints with sheet metal screws and seal with listed duct mastic or UL 181-rated tape as required by code. Do not use this pipe in applications requiring double-wall, insulated, or lined duct without additional components.
