Gravity Backdraft Damper with Seal

Round Gravity Backdraft Damper with EPDM Seal for HVAC Duct Systems

Gravity Backdraft Dampers with Seal are designed to prevent reverse airflow in round HVAC duct systems. Featuring a gravity-operated single blade and integrated rubber or EPDM seal, they provide improved airtightness, reduced leakage, and reliable backdraft protection for residential and commercial ventilation applications.

Product Description

The Gravity Backdraft Damper with Seal is designed to prevent reverse airflow in round HVAC and ventilation duct systems. It features a single blade that opens automatically when air flows in the intended direction and closes by gravity when airflow stops or reverses. Compared with standard gravity backdraft dampers, this model is equipped with an integrated rubber or EPDM sealing strip to improve air tightness and reduce air leakage.

The sealed design helps minimize unwanted outside air entry, dust infiltration, and pressure loss, making it suitable for residential, commercial, and light industrial ventilation systems. Its round structure allows easy connection to circular ducts, extractor fans, inline fans, and exhaust systems.

Manufactured from galvanized steel, aluminum, or other optional materials, the damper offers reliable performance, corrosion resistance, and low maintenance. It is an ideal solution where better sealing performance is required without using a spring-loaded mechanism.

Key Features

  • Gravity Operated Design  Blade opens automatically with forward airflow and closes by gravity when airflow stops
  • Integrated Seal  Rubber or EPDM seal improves airtightness and reduces leakage
  • Reverse Airflow Prevention   Prevents backdraft, outside air intrusion, and dust entry
  • Low Pressure Loss  Lightweight blade design ensures smooth airflow passage
  • Improved Closing Performance: Sealing strip helps reduce rattling and enhances shut-off effect
  • Round Duct Compatibility  Suitable for circular ventilation pipes and round HVAC ducts
  • Durable Construction  Available in galvanized steel, aluminum, or stainless steel optional
  • Low Maintenance  No motor, actuator, or complex mechanical parts required

Applications

  • Residential ventilation systems
  • Commercial HVAC duct systems
  • Bathroom and toilet exhaust
  • Kitchen exhaust ventilation
  • Inline fan outlets
  • Wall-mounted exhaust ducts
  • Air transfer and extraction systems
  • Ventilation systems requiring reduced leakage
