Southwark Metal st901028 Straight Elbow 10 in 28 Gauge

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL st901028 is a 10-inch, 28-gauge straight elbow duct fitting used in sheet metal ductwork systems. It is designed to redirect airflow within a duct run while maintaining a consistent cross-section through the turn. At 28 gauge, the metal provides a balance of rigidity and workability suited to residential and light commercial HVAC installations. HVAC technicians and sheet metal contractors install this fitting as part of supply or return air distribution systems, connecting it to rectangular or round duct runs as applicable to the layout.

This fitting is appropriate for forced-air heating and cooling systems where a straight elbow configuration is needed to route ductwork around structural obstructions or to change duct direction without offsetting the centerline. It is sold individually and is a standard component in new construction duct fabrication as well as duct repair and modification work.

Key Features

• 10-inch size suits common residential and light commercial duct trunk and branch runs
• 28-gauge sheet metal construction provides structural integrity for air pressure demands in typical HVAC applications
• Straight elbow geometry maintains duct centerline alignment through directional changes
• Sold as a single unit for precise quantity ordering on service and new construction jobs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style sheet metal duct fitting for use in standard residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC duct systems requiring a 10-inch straight elbow configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or qualified sheet metal contractors. Power down the air handling unit and confirm the system is de-energized before working inside the duct run. Secure the fitting using sheet metal screws and seal all joints with listed duct sealant or foil-backed tape in accordance with local mechanical codes and SMACNA guidelines. Avoid sharp bends in adjacent flexible duct connections that could restrict airflow at the elbow.
