Southwark Metal SL60-30GA_8IN Round Duct Pipe 8in 30GA

Product Description

The Southwark Metal SL60-30GA_8IN is a snap-lock round duct pipe fabricated from hot-dip galvanized steel at 30 gauge material thickness. Measuring 8 inches in diameter and 60 inches in length, this pipe is used to construct straight duct runs in low-pressure forced-air HVAC distribution systems. The snap-lock seam provides a secure longitudinal joint without additional fasteners during assembly. HVAC sheet metal installers and duct fabricators work with this pipe in both new construction and retrofit applications where round spiral or snap-lock ductwork is specified.

This round galvanized pipe is suited for residential and light commercial forced-air supply and return duct systems. It is built to ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards, making it appropriate for jobs where code-compliant duct construction is required. Typical installations include trunk-and-branch supply systems, equipment connections, and inline duct runs where an 8-inch round cross-section is called out on the mechanical drawings.

Key Features

• Hot-dip galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in conditioned air applications
• Snap-lock seam design speeds field assembly without additional longitudinal fasteners
• 30 gauge material thickness consistent with standard residential and light commercial duct fabrication
• 60-inch length reduces the number of joints in straight duct runs
• Meets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for sheet metal ductwork

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style component for low-pressure round duct systems built to ACCA and SMACNA standards. Compatible with standard 8-inch round duct fittings, collars, and take-offs used in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed sheet metal or HVAC contractor in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and applicable local mechanical codes. Secure all joints with sheet metal screws and seal with listed duct mastic or UL 181-rated tape per local code requirements. Support spacing should follow SMACNA hanger and support guidelines for round ductwork. Always verify duct system static pressure class before selecting gauge and seam type.
