It is pressed from \u003cstrong\u003egalvanised steel\u003c\/strong\u003e, so it holds its shape under a fan's negative pressure and will not sag, crush or tear the way flexible ducting can. \u003cstrong\u003eAll three connections share the same diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e, which keeps the fitting simple to plan around.

A flexible duct folded into a rough tee kinks, restricts and whistles, and the fan works harder to move less air. Using a properly formed pressed fitting at the branch keeps the internal bore open and the airflow predictable, so the extraction rate you calculated on paper is closer to the one you actually get in the room.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eMatch the T-piece size to the outside diameter of your existing ducting.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSlide the ducting over each spigot and secure with a jubilee or worm drive clamp.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSeal every join with aluminium duct tape to stop leaks and noise.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSupport the fitting with hangers so its weight is not carried by the ducting.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eKeep branch runs as short and straight as possible to preserve airflow.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"hcs-specs\"\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePressed T-piece rigid ducting connector\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGalvanised steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSizes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4\", 5\", 6\", 8\", 10\", 12\", 14\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eConnections\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThree, all the same diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eUse\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJoining two duct runs to a single outlet, or splitting one run\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Metal Ducting","offers":[{"title":"4\"","offer_id":53446968901898,"sku":null,"price":8.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"5\"","offer_id":53446968934666,"sku":null,"price":9.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"6\"","offer_id":53446968967434,"sku":null,"price":13.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"8\"","offer_id":53446969000202,"sku":null,"price":20.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"10\"","offer_id":53446969032970,"sku":null,"price":30.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"12\"","offer_id":53446969065738,"sku":null,"price":47.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"14\"","offer_id":53446969098506,"sku":null,"price":52.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/7127\/5786\/files\/90922_-_4_Inch.jpg?v=1785322281","url":"https:\/\/hydrocropshop.co.uk\/products\/pressed-t-piece-rigid-ducting-part","provider":"Hydro Crop Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
