Connection instructions

Duct to Duct
1 Apply sealant on one end of coupling, one inch from the
stop bead.
2 Slide coupling into one section of duct until stop bead is
flush against raw edge of duct.
3 Slide second section of duct over the other end of the
coupling, stopping one inch short of the stop bead.
4 Apply sealant to the inch of exposed coupling. (Do not
apply sealant prior to this step or to the inside of duct.)
5 After the sealant is applied, push second duct over the
coupling until it’s flush against the stop bead. The only
visible part of the coupling now is the stop bead.
6 Secure the connection by inserting sheet metal screws (or
pop rivets) through each duct, into the coupling, 1/2 inch
from the stop bead.
7 Dress exposed stop bead as required.

Fitting to Duct
1. Slide fitting into duct, stopping one inch short of the stop
bead.
2. Apply sealant to the one inch of exposed fitting collar. (Do
not apply Sealant prior to this stage or to the inside of the
duct.)
3. After the sealant is applied, push duct and fitting together
until duct is flush against the stop bead. The only visible
part of the fitting collar now is the stop bead.
4. Secure the connection by inserting sheet metal screws (or
pop rivets ) through the duct, into the coupling,1/2 inch
from the stop bead.
5. Dress exposed stop bead as required.

Fitting to Fitting
1. Slide the coupling over the collar of the fitting. stopping 1
inch short of the stop bead. (Note that the coupling has no
stop bead.)
2. Apply sealant to the inch of exposed fitting. (Do not apply
sealant prior to this stage or to the inside of the pipe.)
3. After the sealant is applied, push fitting and coupling
together until the coupling is flush against the stop bead.
4. Slide second fitting into coupling, stopping 1 inch short of
stop bead.
5. Apply sealant to the inch of exposed fitting.
6. Push second fitting and coupling together until coupling is
flush against stop bead.
7. Secure the connection by inserting sheet metal screws (or
pop rivets) through the connector, into the fitting,1/2-inch
from the stop bead.
Sharqawi products are manufactured to limit friction, leakage
8. Dress exposed stop bead as required. and noise. By producing fitting and couplings an 1/8 of an inch
smaller than the duct. a secure fit is ensured when properly
installed. If sealing is not required,delete all sealant steps.

Slip-Joint Connections

Duct-to-Duct joints
A duct-to-duct slip joint requires a fitting size, double -wall coupling, as shown in Figure 1. The collars of the
coupling’s inner liner project beyond the collars of the outer wall. This makes it possible to insert the coupling’s
inner liner into the duct’s inner liner before starting to connect the outer shells. A stop bead runs around the
middle of the coupling’s outer shells to center the coupling in the connection.

Duct-to-fitting joints
Double-wall fittings are sized for slip-joint connection directly to double-wall duct. They are fabricated so that the
inner liner collars project beyond the outer shell collars, as shown in Figure 2. This facilities assembly because the
inner liner collar of the fitting can be inserted in to the inner liner of the duct before starting to connect the outer
shell. The outer shell collars of fittings are provided with stop beads.

fitting-to-fitting joints
Two double-wall fittings can be joined using a short piece of double-wall duct cut in the field or using a double-
wall fitting coupling, as shown in Figure 3. This joint can be assembled by the same method as a duct-to-fitting
connection.

If an installation requires closer fitting-to-fitting connection than can be made with a coupling, a fitting can be furnished with one of its ends
duct size (the inner liner at that end does not project beyond the outer wall). This special fitting can be connected directly to a standard fitting
by the same procedure used to connect duct-to-fitting slip joints.

where the distance between the Duct and the fitting is
largest. In the event of incorrect installation, holes caused
by screws or pop rivets must be sealed before re-assembly.
7. For duct-to-duct of fitting-to-fitting connections,
complete the second half of the connection by repeating
steps 1 through 6.
8. Apply duct sealant to the outside of each joint and brush
it around the perimeter of the joint in a band 1 to 1 1/2
inches wide, starting on the stop bead . Make sure all
screw heads are completely covered. For a fitting-to-

connection.
