Eric. Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Does anyone know where to find 5" duct? I've pretty much exhausted the Google, and what I've found has been insanely expensive. The reason I ask is I've got my eye on a cyclone separator to add onto my single stage DC...but the inlet on the cyclone is 5". Why? I have no idea. So assuming I can't find any 5", would I be better off reducing to 4" or expanding to 6" off the cyclone for my main line? The DC inlet is 6" and it's a 2HP. Thanks for any help guys.

Eric. Posted October 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 hope this helps...http://www.pennstate...y-ductwork.html Thanks man, that's better than everything else I've found. The economy stuff is 26 gauge, though...I've heard stories of pipe collapsing on itself when it's too thin. Think that should be a concern? Maybe not with just 2HP?

dcustoms Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 26 gauge is good the stuff that collapses is the 30ga HVAC pipe you find at home centers. You would be perfectly fine. Good luck with the new cyclone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
