When companies add or relocate production equipment, they often focus on electrical requirements while overlooking the critical role of properly designed dust collection ductwork. Poorly sized or configured duct systems can lead to dust accumulation on equipment, products, within ductwork, and even in workers' lungs, creating operational and safety risks. Unlike electrical upgrades, duct modifications require specialized knowledge of airflow, dust transport, and collection system design. Many facility owners struggle with questions about system capacity, costs, equipment changes, and optimal performance. The key to a successful solution is partnering with a ducting and dust collection expert who can evaluate production equipment, material characteristics, and existing system challenges to design an efficient, cost-effective dust collection system that supports long-term operational needs.
Clamp-Together Duct System from US Duct
The Quick-Connect, Quick-Assembly, No-Weld Ductwork
Our Laser-Welded Clamp-Together Ducting (CTD) uses a gasketed, over-center clamp that seals the rolled lip on the end of ALL clamp-fitting ductwork components.
At US Duct, we know more about Clamp-Together Ductwork than anyone. We provide ALL components and special fittings. The system is infinitely adjustable with adjustment capability built into EVERY fitting.
While Clamp Together Duct is often the fastest, easiest and cheapest way to address dust/mist collection, it is often best used in conjunction with other connection methods as dictated by the application, or duct size. Our extensive knowledge will enable you to get the best solution—for the application AND the money.
Quack about quick and easy ductwork! How it works:
- Our Clamp-Together system? It’s all about that smooth connection! Picture this: a rolled lip (kind of like a mini 55-gallon barrel rim) formed on the end of every part. These lips lock together using a gasketed, over-center clamp that snugly seals the deal. Whether it’s pipe or special hoods, ALL parts are ready to roll with rolled lips.
- Need options? We’ve got the materials to fit your bill! Choose from galvanized or stainless steel. Standard gauges run from 18-24, with the rolled lip directly formed onto the pipe itself. For those heavier-duty jobs (up to 10 gauge), we use a separate collar that fits like it was made for it—because it was.
- The best part? The Clamp-Together system is as flexible as a duck landing on water. Thanks to a combo of our 11”adjustable sleeve and the integral adjustable collar on each fitting, this system is infinitely adjustable. Whether you’re a pro or waddling into ductwork for the first time, you’ll save up to 70% on installation time. Quack yeah, that’s efficiency!
