Why this ducting earns its place
The Combisteel saddle right flank is designed to tap into an existing 450 mm extraction duct and branch off a secondary run—perfect when you need to add a new extraction point without interrupting the main airflow. It sits on the right side of the duct (hence "right flank") and bolts on cleanly.
Instead of cutting and rejoining your main duct, a saddle flank lets you keep the primary extraction intact while feeding off secondary branches—to a grease hood in the prep area, a separate dishpit, or makeup air returns. The 450 mm size makes it suitable for medium-to-large kitchen systems where the main extract trunk is substantial.
At 2 kg, it's a practical bolt-on component that your fit-out team can install during retrofit or new build. Because it doesn't require duct cutting, you avoid the weak points that come with manual sealing and jointing. Combisteel components are the trade standard: simple, proven, and stocked by suppliers nationwide.
