Galvanized Steel Ducts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of duct material is the most commonly used one. galvanized steel ducts is made of steel coated with zinc coating, thus making it having an advantages in strength and corrosion resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of material further divided into three types:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>External insulation ducts: <\/strong>Ducts with an outer insulation has an insulation layer that only protects the outer part of the channel. This makes it suitable for use in extreme temperatures or harsh environmental conditions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>External and internal insulation ducts: <\/strong>The duct is equipped with insulation layers both on the outside and inside of the canal, thus making it ideal for installations that require additional protection against air temperature, such as in HVAC systems in high-rise buildings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>No insulation ducts: <\/strong>This type of duct is usually used in indoor installations that do not require additional protection against air temperature. Although it does not have an insulation layer, this ducting remains robust and can be used in a variety of applications.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Polyurethane_Ducts_PU\"><\/span>2. Polyurethane Ducts (PU)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This ducting is made of polyurethane material which is a light but strong material. The main advantage of PU ducting is its resistance to moisture and corrosion, so it is suitable for use in installations in environments with changing air conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The PU ducting is also relatively easy to install and move, so it is suitable for temporary applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Textile_Ducts\"><\/span>3. Textile Ducts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Textile ducting is made of a flexible and lightweight textile material. The main advantage of this ducking is its high flexibility, so it can easily be adapted to the shape and size of the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Textile ducting is typically used in temporary or indoor installations that require high flexibility in airway placement. Despite being flexible, these ductings remain strong and are able to flow air efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So there you go the explanation of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/what-is-duct-and-what-are-the-types-of-duct-materials\/\">what is duct<\/a> and the types of duct materials!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is duct and what are the types of duct materials?
