Years Manufacturing

At SIDCO Spiral Duct Inc, we manufacture galvanized spiral duct in Memphis, TN — supplying contractors, HVAC installers, and industrial facilities across the country. Our duct is fabricated from high-quality zinc-coated galvanized steel using precision spiral-lock seam technology.

The helical spiral seam is inherently stronger than a straight longitudinal seam — our pipes are up to 20% stronger than smooth-wall pipe of the same gauge. That means less reinforcement, fewer hangers, and faster installation on every job.

We stock standard sizes from 4″ through 16″ for immediate same-day shipment. Larger diameters up to 48″ are fabricated within 1–2 business days. We also manufacture custom lengths, gauges, and diameters to your exact specifications.

🔒

Tight Spiral Lock Seam

Precision-formed seam minimizes air leakage and maximizes structural integrity.

🛡️

90 GSM Zinc Protection

Heavy zinc coating resists corrosion in humid and industrial environments.

💨

Smooth Interior Bore

Low-friction inner surface delivers maximum airflow with minimal pressure drop.

Custom Fabrication

Tell us your specs — we manufacture any size or gauge to your drawings.

Engineering Specs

26ga

Light Gauge (3″–15″)

Standard specification for residential and light commercial systems up to 15″ diameter. Ideal for supply air, return air, and exhaust.

24ga

Medium Gauge (16″–26″)

Heavier gauge for larger commercial and industrial installations. Greater wall thickness handles higher static pressure ratings.

90gsm

Zinc Coating Grade

G90 galvanized coating (90 grams/m² total both sides) provides superior corrosion resistance for long service life.

5&10ft

Standard Lengths

Available in both 5-foot and 10-foot lengths to minimize scrap and simplify layout. Custom lengths available on request.

🚚

Fast Shipping From Memphis, TN

4″, 6″, 8″, 10″, 12″, and 14″ sizes are stocked and always ready to ship. Sizes 16″–22″ require 1–2 business days for fabrication. Call us for rush orders and freight quotes.

Built for Every Application

🏢

Commercial HVAC Systems

Office buildings, hotels, and retail centers rely on galvanized spiral duct for its strength, clean appearance, and reliable long-term performance in exposed ceiling installations.

🏭

Industrial Ventilation

Welding booths, manufacturing plants, and spray booth stacking demand the rigidity and corrosion resistance of galvanized spiral. Handles high-velocity airflows without resonance.

🌿

Dust Collection Systems

The smooth interior bore of spiral duct keeps particulate-laden air flowing efficiently. Widely specified for woodworking shops, paper trim lines, and material handling systems.

🏫

Schools & Institutions

Long building lifecycles demand durable ductwork. Galvanized spiral holds up through decades of HVAC operation and is easy to clean to meet indoor air quality standards.

🍽️

Restaurants & Food Service

Kitchen exhaust and makeup air systems for commercial kitchens benefit from galvanized steel's heat resistance and the hygienic, smooth surface that resists grease buildup.

💊

Pharmaceutical Clean Rooms

Galvanized spiral duct meets the cleanroom standards required for pharmaceutical manufacturing, providing reliable, leak-free airflow distribution in controlled environments.

The SIDCO Difference

01

Manufacturer Direct

We are not a distributor reselling someone else's product. We fabricate our duct in-house at our Memphis, TN facility — which means tighter quality control, faster lead times, and prices that reflect real manufacturing costs, not distributor markups.

02

20% Stronger by Design

The helical lock seam used in spiral duct fabrication is structurally superior to straight longitudinal seams. Our pipes test up to 20% stronger than smooth-wall equivalents at the same gauge — meaning more hanger spacing, less bracing, and faster installs.

03

Consistent Zinc Protection

Every section of duct we manufacture is coated to G90 standard (90 grams per square meter total, both sides). This is the galvanization level specified for HVAC systems expected to perform for 20+ years in commercial environments.

04

Custom Orders Welcome

Need an odd diameter? Non-standard gauge? A specific length not in the table? We manufacture to customer specs. Contact our team with your drawings or dimensions and we'll quote you the same day.

05

Complete Fittings Range

We manufacture all the fittings that go with your duct — elbows, reducers, saddle taps, start collars, end caps, couplings, offsets, and volume dampers — so every component is compatible and built to the same quality standard.

06

Fast, Reliable Shipping

Most stock sizes ship the same day. We regularly fulfill large orders across the Southeast and beyond, including recent shipments of 48″ diameter spiral duct to customers in Pennsylvania. We'll coordinate LTL and full truckload freight to your jobsite.

How to Properly Size Galvanized Spiral Duct for Your HVAC System

Correct duct sizing is the foundation of an efficient HVAC system. Under-sized duct creates excessive velocity and noise; over-sized duct wastes material and space. This guide walks through velocity-based and static pressure-based sizing methods, and explains when each approach applies — from small residential supplies to large commercial mains.

Galvanized vs. Stainless Steel Duct: Which One Does Your Project Actually Need?

Stainless steel duct costs 3–5× more than galvanized. Is it worth it? The answer depends on your environment. We break down the corrosion resistance, temperature ratings, and application categories where each material makes sense — and why galvanized G90 is the right spec for the vast majority of commercial HVAC installations.

5 Reasons Contractors Prefer Spiral Duct Over Rectangular on Commercial Jobs

Rectangular duct has been losing ground to spiral for 20 years — and for good reason. Round spiral duct installs faster, leaks less, handles sound better, and looks cleaner in exposed ceiling applications. We explain the mechanical and economic advantages that are making spiral the default specification for new commercial construction.

Hanger Spacing & Support Requirements for Galvanized Spiral Duct

Improper duct support is one of the most cited deficiencies in HVAC inspections. SMACNA publishes maximum hanger spacing tables based on duct diameter and gauge — but understanding why those numbers exist helps you make smart decisions in the field. This post covers the load mechanics and shows you what to look for when specifying supports for spiral duct up to 48″.

How Duct Leakage Silently Increases Your Energy Bills — And How to Stop It

Studies show that a poorly sealed duct system can lose 20–30% of conditioned air before it reaches the occupied space. That energy goes straight into your utility bill. We explain how spiral duct's tight lock seam compares to rectangular duct's transverse and longitudinal seams, and the sealing methods that bring duct leakage to near zero.

Galvanized Duct Maintenance Guide: Making Your System Last 30+ Years

Galvanized steel is built for longevity — but like any building system, it performs better with periodic attention. This guide covers inspection intervals, what early corrosion looks like versus normal patina, how to address condensation risks in humid climates, and when it makes sense to reline versus replace a section of aging duct.
