Metal Dust & Shavings Duct
Metal fumes and particles generated from welding, machining, grinding, and cutting operations pose serious health and safety risks. These fine contaminants easily become airborne and can be inhaled, leading to respiratory issues and other health problems. Metal particles also settle on floors and equipment, creating slip hazards and potential equipment malfunctions.
Weld fumes contain toxic metals and compounds that become trapped in the lungs and target other body systems. Machining dust and shavings from cutting, grinding, and fabrication create fine particulates that billow through the workspace. Metal grinding particles and other fabrication contaminants accumulate quickly without proper collection. Source-capture dust collection systems use ductwork mounted directly on machinery to pull these contaminants away from operators and into filtration systems.
Metal Dust Ducting Solutions
Nordfab® Quick-Fit® ducting provides the ideal solution for metal fume extraction systems. The clamp-together, laser-welded construction creates virtually leak-free connections that maintain system efficiency and prevent contaminated air from escaping back into the workspace. Unlike traditional spiral duct, QF® ducting is reusable and adaptable, making system modifications and maintenance simple.
For combustible metal dust environments, Nordfab® integrates NFPA-compliant safety components directly into the QF® system. The modular design eliminates screws, welds, rivets, and flanges, while double-rolled edges create strong, tight seals when clamped.
Metal Dust & Fume Duct Parts
Metal fume collection systems demand leak-tight, adaptable ductwork components that capture toxic welding fumes and machining particles at the source while maintaining system integrity under high-velocity airflow and supporting flexible reconfiguration as fabrication layouts evolve.
