Pittsburgh Seam Closer—Floor Mounted

Want to invest in a Machine that everyone in the Duct Shop AND the Offices will appreciate? Consider Vicon’s vertical Floor Mount Pittsburgh Seam Closer

Why? Because the longitudinal seam is the longest connection in rectangular duct sections and it’s usually seamed with the Pittsburgh Lock, a Lock comprised of two parts: the Female Pittsburgh Pocket seam and the Male Right Angle Flange. Taking these two parts and connecting them is loudest noise in every Duct Fab shop because duct shops use ear shattering Air Hammers to knock down the seam on straight runs. At an ear piercing 120 + decibels, the impact to the operator is the equivalent of standing 100 ft away from a commercial Jet airplane. Since the typical rectangular duct job is 75% straight duct and 25% fittings and since the longitudinal seam is the length/ the long part of these sections, the sound of these pneumatic hammers echoes thru many shops the entire work day.      

Automating the forming of this lock seems like a no brainer, especially if the machine introduced formed the lock faster and cleaner. The fact that it does it quietly and with hardly any operator effort is “icing on the cake”. Vicon’s Floor Mount vertical Pittsburgh Seam Closer does this that for straight duct sections as short as 12” and as long as 60”; as heavy as 16 ga Galvanized and as light as 26 gauge. 100% Made in America and not a regretful customer to be found, THIS machine belongs on the floor Fab Shop making commercial HVAC Duct.
