Value Collection 57131261 Galvanized Duct End Stack Boot

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 57131261 is a galvanized steel end stack boot designed for residential and light commercial duct systems. End stack boots connect round duct to a floor, wall, or ceiling register opening, transitioning from round duct to a flat rectangular outlet. This fitting features a 6-inch inside diameter inlet and a 12-inch overall width, making it compatible with standard register openings. The galvanized construction provides corrosion resistance suited to the temperature and humidity conditions typical inside duct systems. HVAC installers and sheet metal contractors use this fitting during new construction and retrofit duct runs.

This end stack boot is intended for forced-air duct installations where a round branch duct must terminate at a supply register. It is well-suited for residential floor, wall, or ceiling supply applications in standard forced-air heating and cooling systems. The fitting ships as a single unit, making it straightforward to order exact quantities needed for a job. Its standard-gauge galvanized construction meets typical residential duct fabrication requirements.

Key Features

• 6-inch inside diameter inlet mates to standard 6-inch round duct
• 12-inch overall width fits common residential register openings
• 14.88-inch overall height accommodates typical stack or floor-boot installations
• Galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in supply-air environments
• Standard-gauge material consistent with residential sheet metal duct practice
• Single-unit packaging allows precise quantity ordering per job

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-construction fitting for standard 6-inch round branch duct terminations in residential forced-air heating and cooling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician or licensed sheet metal contractor in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and local mechanical codes. Power the air handling unit off and confirm the system is de-energized before working inside the duct system. Secure the boot to the duct with sheet metal screws and seal all joints with listed duct sealant or UL 181-rated tape to maintain system efficiency. Do not use standard duct tape as a primary sealant on supply duct connections.
