Application & Installation
The DuraTite Quick Connect Collars can be used with 1", 1-1/2" and 2" duct board or sheet metal trunk lines, and with flex or metal duct. There are no tabs to bend back which means substantial labor savings and no more cut fingers. DuraTite’s unique design also gives installers the freedom to pre-install their flex duct prior to getting up in the attic or crawl space and saves them even more time in the field. DuraTite collars are made in the U.S. and are currently sold across the country as well as in several key markets abroad.

Attach flex duct with zip tie or metal duct pipe with sheet metal screws.

Because of our unique zip and clip system, you can preinstall the flex duct prior to attachment to main trunk line. Be sure not to remove the cover of the internal gasket or pull the zip clips tight, until ready to install, as irreversible effects will take place.
Debido a nuestro original sistema de los clips y sujetadores, usted puede pre-instalar el ducto flexible antes de montarlo en el ducto principal. Asegúrese de no quitar el protector de la tapa interna o empujar el clip sujetador hasta que esté listo para instalar, ya que no pueden volver a su estado original.
