January ’98 — EZ-Pipe Plus, page 39.
The article is about EZ-Pipe Plus for 2D Piping in AutoCAD which is a software plugin for CAD that creates 2D pipe, valves, and fittings. It provides full compatibility with AutoCAD on multiple hardware platforms and allows users to adjust pipe lengths based on current weld gap. The article describes the features and benefits of the software, such as:
- Buttweld Fittings: The software includes short and long radius elbows, caps, tees, crosses, reducers, weld-o-lets, and more. The pipe size ranges from 0.5 to 42 inches.
- Flanged Valves: The software includes gate, globe, plug, check, butterfly, strainer, regulator, needle, and user-defined valves. It also includes various types of flanges, such as weld neck, threaded, slip-on, lapped, blind, and raised face.
- PVC Schedule 40/80 Pipe Fittings/Valves: The software includes caps, elbows, tees, crosses, adapters, couplings, unions, plugs, bushings, nipples, and various valves and flanges for PVC pipes.
- Forged Steel Screwed Fittings and Valves: The software includes 90 degree elbows, 45 degree elbows, caps, tees, crosses, reducers, couplings, nipples, unions, swage, thread-o-lets, and various valves for forged steel pipes. The pressure rating ranges from 2000# to 6000#.
- Socketweld Fittings: The software includes 90 degree elbows, 45 degree elbows, caps, tees, crosses, reducers, inserts, couplings, nipples, unions, swage, laterals, weld-o-lets, and more for socketweld pipes. The pressure rating ranges from 2000# to 3000#.
