The Tube/Pipe Library holds all the materials that can be used to create single parts. On the right side of the Tube/Pipe Library window, under 'Material List', is the list of each available material. To the right of this list is the area where tube/pipe material information will be shown.

Each material is defined by supplying custom dimensions, a shape, and units of measure.

To access the tube/pipe library, click on the Tools menu and click on the Tube Library option in the drop down menu or click on the Tube Library option on the Task Menu.

  • Type: Tube material can be either round, square, or rectangle.


  • Color: The color of the material can be chosen using the Color button. Color button.png This color will be used to shade the material in various areas throughout the software.


  • Unit of Measure: Parts can be measured in either inches or millimeters.

For round material, the wall thickness and outside diameter measurements will be required. These values will be entered into the fields on the material diagram. Note: The diameter of all materials are measured from the outside edges.
