Southwark Metal TD_16X8X60 Sheet Metal Trunk Duct

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL TD_16X8X60 is a rectangular sheet metal trunk duct section used in forced-air HVAC distribution systems. Fabricated from hot-dip galvanized steel, it measures 16 inches by 8 inches in cross-section and runs 60 inches in length. The duct features a button snap-lock seam with S-cleat and drive connection ends for fast, secure field assembly. Cross-breaking adds panel rigidity and reduces oil-canning noise under system pressure. This trunk section is installed by licensed HVAC technicians and sheet metal workers on residential and light commercial supply-air duct systems.

This duct section is suited for residential and light commercial forced-air heating and cooling systems where rectangular trunk duct runs are required. It fits into standard duct layouts requiring a 16-by-8-inch trunk section and connects to adjacent duct sections, fittings, or air handlers using the S-cleat and drive connection system. It meets ACCA and SMACNA standards, making it appropriate for installations where those guidelines govern duct construction and sizing.

• Hot-dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in conditioned air applications
• Button snap-lock seam for fast, secure longitudinal closure in the field
• S-cleat and drive connection ends for straightforward section-to-section assembly
• Cross-broken panels for added rigidity and reduced system-pressure noise
• Meets ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards for duct construction
• 16 x 8 inch cross-section in a 60-inch length for versatile trunk run layouts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-construction trunk duct section for residential and light commercial forced-air systems requiring a 16-by-8-inch rectangular galvanized duct with S-cleat and drive connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians or journeyman sheet metal workers. Power down the air handler and close the fuel or refrigerant supply before working on any connected duct sections. S-cleat and drive connections should be properly seated and secured with sheet metal screws or approved fasteners per SMACNA guidelines. Seal all joints with listed duct sealant or mastic in accordance with local mechanical codes before system startup.
