Value Collection 15003000 Galvanized Round Adjustable Elbow

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 15003000 is a galvanized steel round adjustable elbow designed for use in sheet metal ductwork systems. This fitting allows field adjustment of the elbow angle to accommodate routing changes in supply or return air duct runs. With a 3-inch inside diameter and a 6.5-inch overall width, it fits standard round duct connections in residential and light commercial HVAC applications. The galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in typical indoor air distribution environments. HVAC installers and sheet metal mechanics use this type of fitting when a fixed-angle elbow cannot accommodate the required duct path.

This adjustable elbow is suited for round duct installations in forced-air heating and cooling systems. It is used at transitions, offsets, and directional changes in trunk or branch duct runs where a rigid fixed elbow would not fit the required angle. The 3-inch diameter makes it appropriate for branch supply runs serving individual registers or small zones. It is a standard-gage fitting intended for typical residential new construction and retrofit ductwork projects.

Key Features

• 3-inch inside diameter matches standard round duct and collar sizes
• Adjustable elbow design allows field-set angle changes to suit the duct run
• Galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for indoor air distribution use
• 6.5-inch overall width accommodates typical branch duct clearances
• Standard-gage material suitable for residential and light commercial forced-air systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3-inch round galvanized ductwork in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician or sheet metal mechanic. Power down the air handling unit and close the supply air isolation point before opening the duct system for fitting installation. Secure the fitting with sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL 181-rated foil tape or mastic per applicable mechanical codes before returning the system to service. Do not overtighten sheet metal screws, as this can distort the fitting collar and cause air leakage.
