Pipe Calc Elite

Pipe Calc Elite is the pipe trades calculator for pipefitters, plumbers, steamfitters, welders and sprinkler fitters. Solve simple and rolling offsets, take-outs and cut lengths in feet, inches and fractions, look up pipe data for seven materials, and work out pressure loss through pipe, valves and fittings.

One purchase. No subscription, no ads, no account, and no data collected. Everything, including the full user's manual, works with no signal on the job site. On the App Store since 2013.

OFFSETS AND FITTINGS
• Simple and rolling offsets: offset, run, travel, roll and advance
• Take-out and cut length for butt-weld long and short radius, field-cut, and threaded Class 150, 300, 3000 and 6000 elbows
• Thread make-up by pipe size, or enter your own
• Welder's gap, cutbacks, arc lengths and odd-angle fittings
• Enter your own take-out when your fittings differ from the standard
• When the fittings are longer than the centerline allows, the cut length shows how much you are short
• Slope, grade, drop per foot and fitting angle

PIPE DATA
• Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Aluminum, Brass, PVC and Copper, 1/8" to 42", with dimensions per ASME B36.10 and B36.19 and the ASTM copper and PVC standards
• Schedules 10 to 160, Standard, Extra Strong and Double Extra Strong; stainless 5S to 160S; PVC Schedule 40, 80, 120 and SDR 21 to 41; copper Type K, L, M, DWV, Medical and ACR
• Inside and outside diameter, wall thickness, internal area, volume per foot, and dry and filled weight per foot, with a cross-section drawing
• Filled weight for water or any fluid density you set

FLOW AND PRESSURE LOSS
• Pressure loss by flow rate or velocity, per foot or over a run
• Darcy-Weisbach with Colebrook-White friction
• Ten valves and fittings, with loss coefficients from the ASHRAE Handbook by size and by threaded or welded joint
• Water temperature from 32 to 212°F sets the viscosity
• Answers in psi, psf, feet of head, inches of mercury, kPa and bar, with the Reynolds number and friction factor used
• Flow, velocity, force, pressure and area solved from each other

CALCULATOR AND CONVERSIONS
• Add, subtract, multiply and divide feet, inches and fractions, down to 1/64, with meters and millimeters mixed in
• Areas and volumes carry their units: 5 in x 5 in is 25 square inches
• Conversions for length, area, volume, weight, flow, vel
