ZM-901 Round 9" Hole Size Brass Grille With Damper; 10" Exterior Diameter
Made to fit into a 9" round hole or duct, these grates have an exterior diameter of approximately 1" greater than their boot size. The damper is made from finely cast iron, with a Lost Wax Cast brass operator. None better anywhere, at any price.
This 9" grate is available in either brass or iron ( painted black ZM-IR-901).
You may feel some resistance when opening and closing the cast iron louvers for the damper. The friction helps to keep the louvers in a set position to your liking, and withstand normal increases in air pressure caused by higher fan speeds from heating and cooling units.
