Duct closures and methods of sealing ducts using the same

摘要

Duct closures include a first member and a second member. The first and second members are configured to define a cavity therebetween when in a closed position. A hinge on a first end of the first member and the second member pivotally connects the first member and the second member for movement between the closed position and an open position. A duct mating region on a second end of the first and second members, opposite from the first end, is configured to define a duct receiving opening receiving and sealingly engaging an outer surface of a duct having longitudinally extending members extending therefrom. A plurality of openings to the cavity are defined by the first and second members on the first end and sized to receive ones of the longitudinally extending members extending therethrough. A sealant material positioned in the cavity environmentally seals the openings with the ones of the longitudinally extending members extending therethrough.
