Southwark Metal TD_22X8X60 Sheet Metal Trunk Duct

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL TD_22X8X60 is a hot dip galvanized steel sheet metal trunk duct section measuring 22 inches by 8 inches by 60 inches. It is designed to carry conditioned supply air through the main trunk line of a forced-air HVAC distribution system. The duct features a button snap-lock seam with S-cleat and drive connection for secure field assembly, and cross-breaking on the flat panels to add rigidity and reduce drumming under airflow pressure. This type of trunk duct section is fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA standards and is installed by licensed HVAC contractors and sheet metal mechanics.

This trunk duct section is suited for residential and light commercial forced-air installations where rectangular main trunk runs are required. The 22 x 8 inch cross-section accommodates higher-volume supply air distribution typical of central air systems serving multiple branch takeoffs. The 60-inch section length allows efficient layout in standard joist-bay and basement ceiling applications. It connects to adjacent sections or fittings using the integral S-cleat and drive connection, which are industry-standard fastening methods for rectangular sheet metal ductwork.

Key Features

• Hot dip galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in unconditioned spaces
• Button snap-lock longitudinal seam for secure, airtight assembly
• S-cleat and drive connection ends for standard field joining without specialty tools
• Cross-broken flat panels reduce vibration and panel flex under operating static pressure
• Fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA applicable standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style rectangular trunk duct section compatible with standard SMACNA rectangular duct systems using S-cleat and drive connections in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC contractor or journeyman sheet metal mechanic in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and local mechanical codes. Shut down and lock out the air handler or furnace before connecting or sealing duct sections. Use listed duct sealant or approved tape at all joints to meet leakage class requirements. Support spacing should follow SMACNA hanger and support guidelines for rectangular duct of this cross-section size.
