Malco Duct Stretcher

Description

Malco DS1 and DS2 Duct Stretchers are designed allow the installer to hold the duct in place with one hand while slipping a drive cleat in place with the other. The low profile straight body allows this tool go just about anywhere, even the tightest of quarters. Additional spacing holes allow the wheels to be adjusted to span greater distances. A rugged anodized aluminum body features large vinyl cushion grips and a handy hang-up hole. The DS2 model features a angled “offset” bend to move the handle away from the duct and eliminate knuckle contact!

The Malco DS3 Locking Duct Stretcher pulls duct sections together and locks them in place freeing up both hands to align and install drive cleats. The DS3 works from either side of a duct connection with no need to adjust the wheels! Simply place the wheels located on the movable cam on one side of the adjoining duct flanges, then turn the handle downward to pull the duct seams together and lock in place! Offset handle eliminates knuckle contact with the duct.
