With an 8-inch inside diameter and an overall length of 3.75 inches, this connector accommodates minor misalignment, vibration, and thermal movement between duct sections. The galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in typical HVAC air distribution applications. HVAC technicians and sheet metal contractors install this fitting during new construction and service work on residential and light commercial forced-air systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis flex connector is suited for use in supply and return air duct assemblies where a short, flexible transition is needed between rigid duct segments. It is appropriate for residential and light commercial HVAC installations requiring an 8-inch round duct fitting. The compact 3.75-inch length makes it practical in tight mechanical spaces where a longer flex section is not feasible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8-inch inside diameter fits standard round duct runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall length of 3.75 inches for use in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGalvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlex connector design absorbs vibration and accommodates minor duct misalignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard gauge construction consistent with commercial HVAC duct fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 8-inch round galvanized ductwork in residential and light commercial forced-air HVAC systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified sheet metal contractor. Shut down and de-energize the air handling unit before beginning any duct modification or fitting replacement. Secure both ends of the flex connector to the adjoining duct sections using sheet metal screws and foil-backed duct tape or mastic sealant in accordance with local mechanical codes and SMACNA guidelines. Do not over-compress the connector, as this restricts airflow and defeats the vibration-isolation purpose of the fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuct Fitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flex Connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40141700\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 99308000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51721781870898,"sku":"99308000","price":22.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1d3e15bcef41b45714b2c61de937f14e.jpg?v=1788580734","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-99308000-galvanized-duct-flex-connector","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
