In this case, you will need the Quick-Fit Adjustable Sleeve to achieve your desired length.

What is the Quick-Fit Adjustable Sleeve?
The Quick-Fit Adjustable Sleeve is an 11" piece used when a 5' length of pipe has been cut smaller.

Nordfab Ducting General Specifications

Nordfab QF duct is a clamp together design using a rolled edge design with a single lever clamp. The ducting and clamps are constructed from similar materials. All clamps contain a standard gasket made of Nitrile which is suitable for most applications, including oil mist, as long as high temperatures are not an issue. Silicone and ePTFE gasket options are available for higher temperature applications. Nordfab Quick-Fit Ducting is available in 1" increments sized 3" to 24" diameter.

Nordfab’s laser welded seam Quick-Fit^® Ducting System has been used in many different industrial applications, and under various negative static pressures. The typical design range we see in our applications range from -2" wg to - 28" wg; however, there are some systems operating at vacuums of -32" wg to -42" wg under normal operating parameters.

The pipe comes in 5' lengths with a rolled lip on each end, thus providing reinforcement every 5', which presents a sound structural design that should be as strong or stronger than any pipe in its class according to SMACNA guidelines and regulations.
