90 degree elbow with side outlet

Anonymous · ‎02-22-2018

What pattern are folks using for a 90 degree elbow with a side outlet where all the outlets are the same diameter? I was able to get pattern 2857 to work but only if the side outlet is smaller than the main run. Thanks!

Hi Jason

Can you provide an image of what you are attempting to create please?

Thanks,

Absolutely, The image is attached...

When the branch is the same size as the run, pattern 2857 works when the branch is in the same plane at the bend, but not as a side outlet.

Thanks!

Hi Jason

I see the problem now. I couldn't get this to work as an equal sized fitting either, nor could Ii make sure the center lines were all intersecting. I had some success manipulating the tank pattern (CID912).

I have attached some screenshots of the part. It isn't the prettiest due to the geometry at the back, but its accurate.

Thanks! I also just downloaded some online content that had this fitting and they used pattern 2326 to make the equal sides work.

Thanks again!
