ABSTRACT:
For use in connecting flexible air-carrying ducts into rectangular sub-floor ducts, a knock-down collar, easily installed in the field, possesses sufficient rigidity to withstand the compression of a draw band by which a flexible duct is secured. Field assembly is by means of a drive cleat over 180.degree. flanges of the collar workpiece; tabs outstanding from the bends resist the hoop compression. A ring of inward-bent trapezoidal segments forms a flange presentable upwardly against the edge surface around an opening in a sub-floor duct with their tips bent upward and back to secure to such opening.
