Greenheck drive slip connections (S & Drive) are used on 
the side of the hemmed sleeves and the S-slip joints are 
used on the top and bottom. Standard drive slips are UL 
tested breakaway connections on dampers 20 in. (508mm) 
high and less. 

Installation

Greenheck Dampers may be supplied with factory hemmed 
20 ga. (1mm) sleeve for use with drive slip and s-slip joints. 
Sleeves and duct may be field hemmed by folding back the 
vertical sides a maximum of 1/2 in. (13mm) (as shown in 
Figure 1) to accommodate the 1 in. (25mm) wide drive slip. 

Join damper sleeve to duct at top and bottom sides using 
any  s-slip (See Figure 2).

Drive slip connection is used to connect the vertical sides 
of the damper sleeve to the duct. Cut a length of drive slip 
connection a maximum of 4 in. (102mm) longer than the 
vertical duct dimension. Guide the  drive slip connection 
onto the side members securing it over the hemmed edges 
until the connection extends beyond the top and bottom 
sides of the damper sleeve/ duct. The extra length should 
be hammered flat overlapping all four corners.
