Southwark Metal SL24-30GA_10IN Galvanized Round Pipe 30GA 10in

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL SL24-30GA_10IN is a 30-gauge hot-dip galvanized steel round pipe section used in low-pressure HVAC duct systems. It measures 10 inches in diameter and 24 inches in length, with a snap-lock seam construction that allows for fast field assembly without additional fasteners. The hot-dip galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suited for both supply and return air applications in residential and light commercial installations. This pipe is fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA standards, making it appropriate for code-compliant duct system construction. Sheet metal workers and HVAC installers are the primary trades handling this component.

This round pipe section is used in forced-air duct systems where round spiral or snap-lock pipe is specified. It fits into standard trunk-and-branch layouts as well as fully round duct systems. The 10-inch diameter is common in main branch runs serving larger zones or as sub-main extensions off a rectangular plenum. The 24-inch length suits tight mechanical room runs and short transitions. Fabricated to SMACNA and ACCA standards, this pipe integrates with standard round fittings, collars, and take-offs used throughout the industry.

Key Features

• Hot-dip galvanized steel construction provides durable corrosion resistance for long-term duct service
• Snap-lock seam allows fast, tool-minimal assembly on the job site
• 30-gauge material thickness suits standard low-pressure residential and light commercial duct applications
• 10-inch diameter and 24-inch length cover common branch and sub-main run requirements
• Fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for code-compliant installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style component compatible with standard 10-inch round duct fittings, collars, elbows, and take-offs used in SMACNA-compliant forced-air duct systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed sheet metal worker or HVAC technician in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and local mechanical codes. Power down the air handling unit and close the system disconnect before connecting or modifying duct sections. Snap-lock seams should be fully seated before securing joints with sheet metal screws and UL-listed foil tape or mastic sealant per code requirements. Avoid over-deflecting the pipe during handling, as deformation of the snap-lock seam can compromise the joint seal.
