CSST design<br />
Gastite recently announced an agreement<br />
with Accubid Systems Ltd. to have<br />
its entire product line incorporated into<br />
the Accubid line of estimating software.<br />
Gastite manufactures corrugated stainless<br />
steel tubing (CSST) for gas systems.<br />
As well, Gastite recently released its<br />
Sizing Utility for AutoCAD software. It<br />
covers all sizes of Gastite piping from<br />
3/8 to two inches. It will also calculate<br />
pressure drops for rigid pipe and<br />
underground polyethylene piping. The<br />
manufacturer cautions that flow characteristics<br />
vary from one brand of CSST<br />
to the next and therefore this software<br />
should only be used with Gastite piping.<br />
