Southwark Metal TD_10X10X48 Sheet Metal Trunk Duct

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL TD_10X10X48 is a rectangular sheet metal trunk duct section used in forced-air HVAC distribution systems. Fabricated from hot-dip galvanized steel, it measures 10 inches by 10 inches in cross-section and 48 inches in length. The section features a button snap-lock seam with S-cleat and drive connection ends for field assembly, plus cross-breaking on the flat panels to add rigidity and reduce oil-canning. This duct section is installed by licensed sheet metal mechanics and HVAC technicians during new construction or retrofit ductwork projects.

This trunk duct section is suited for residential and light commercial forced-air heating and cooling systems where rectangular metal ductwork is specified. It fits into main trunk runs or branch trunk transitions and is commonly installed in attics, basements, crawlspaces, and mechanical rooms. The S-cleat and drive connection end configuration is standard for rectangular duct systems and allows straightforward field joining to adjacent duct sections or fittings.

Key Features

• Hot-dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in HVAC environments
• Button snap-lock longitudinal seam for secure, airtight panel closure
• S-cleat and drive connection ends for standard field assembly with adjacent sections
• Cross-broken flat panels for added structural rigidity and reduced surface flexing
• Meets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for sheet metal duct fabrication
• 10 x 10 inch cross-section in a 48-inch length for versatile trunk layout planning

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-construction component for rectangular sheet metal trunk duct systems using standard S-cleat and drive connections in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified sheet metal mechanic or licensed HVAC technician in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and local mechanical codes. Seal all joints with UL 181-listed mastic or metal-backed tape after assembly to meet leakage requirements. Support the duct section at intervals required by the applicable mechanical code using listed duct hangers or straps. Ensure all power to the air handling equipment is off before working on connected ductwork.
