Hello all,
I cannot seem to find a galvanized steel periscope dryer vent. I have seen
alot of aluminum ones but no steel. I am using rigid galv pipe for the rest
of the installation, so I believe I need a steel periscope. Any suggestions
would be very helpful.
thank you.

Whats wrong with Aluminum, it will work.

the pipe is going through the garage, where it might get whacked pretty
good. that is why is am using galvanized duct.

If you really want galvanized , have a sheet metal man make one up for you.
Any good furnace shop should be able to do the job. But, as long as you
are having one made up, why not just have a "collector" box made to the
specs you need. No sense having a periscope that slides for adjustment.
That's the way they come so one size fits all.

In fact the zinc (galvi) to aluminum junction shouod be quite compatable.
Use alum where you must and then switch to galvinized steel and you should
be all set.
