Southwark Metal SL60-30GA_9IN Galvanized Round Pipe 30GA 9in

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL SL60-30GA_9IN is a 30-gauge hot-dip galvanized steel round pipe section used in low-pressure HVAC duct distribution systems. Measuring 9 inches in diameter and 60 inches in length, this pipe is fabricated with a snap-lock seam that allows for fast, secure assembly without additional fasteners during straight-run installation. The hot-dip galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for residential and light commercial ductwork applications. Licensed HVAC and sheet metal contractors are the primary installers of this type of round pipe section.

This pipe is intended for use in forced-air supply and return duct systems where round spiral or snap-lock pipe is specified. It is well suited for residential new construction, HVAC system retrofits, and light commercial air distribution work. Fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA standards, it fits into trunk-and-branch or radial duct layouts where 9-inch round duct is called out on the mechanical drawings. Fittings, elbows, and tees for 9-inch round duct are required for directional changes and branch takeoffs.

Key Features

• 30-gauge hot-dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in ductwork applications
• Snap-lock seam design for fast, tool-minimal field assembly
• 9-inch diameter and 60-inch length provide a standard straight-run section
• Meets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for sheet metal duct construction
• Round pipe profile supports balanced airflow in low-pressure forced-air systems

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style round snap-lock pipe section compatible with 9-inch round duct fittings, collars, and connectors used in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems built to ACCA and SMACNA guidelines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or sheet metal contractor in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and local mechanical codes. Power down the air handling unit and close any associated dampers before connecting or modifying duct sections. Secure pipe joints with sheet metal screws and seal all seams and connections with UL 181-listed duct sealant or mastic per local code requirements. Support spacing for round duct should follow SMACNA hanger and support guidelines for the pipe diameter and gauge specified.
