Selecting the right duct material is critical for chemical and wastewater applications where corrosive fumes, moisture, and harsh operating conditions can shorten system life. This guide compares galvanized steel, stainless steel, and flanged ductwork, helping engineers, contractors, and plant managers choose the best solution for long-term performance, reliability, and corrosion resistance.
Segmented Elbows
Segmented elbows, also known as gored elbows or gored segmented elbows, are segments joined together by welding or mechanically locking them together. The mechanical method incorporates a machine that forms the ends of the segments (gores) so that one segment fits into the other and then mechanically locks them together.
18 gauge is the heaviest metal for this mechanical locking method. Heavier gauge metal requires that the segments be welded.
Available in sizes 7-24", any degree, and radius of .75xD and up.
