NTX JK Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 I am needing a symbol for a union for a pipe. I need it to be 2D and if you can just provide a picture what it looks like, I can draw it. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 A long, long time ago, in a land far, far away I was taught to use the three vertical lines you see in this drawing as a pipe Union. UnionSym.dwg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[ATTACH]15150[/ATTACH] Not all can open '09 CAD files, oh well, better luck next time. We have '07 and '05, I always save to 2000 for clients and/or posting in the forums. 2000 most all can open, see. Opening the attachment, "Drawing is invalid." Oops, sorry.

ReMark Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 I believe the file was saved to 2007 file format. The symbol was one I'm sure you would recognize (three parallel lines with the center one twice the size of the other two). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[ATTACH]15150[/ATTACH] Now, that was easy! Jumped to the workstation, laptop only has '05 loaded. Workstations have '07. Symbol is 'bout easy as they come! :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 I was originally taught to show unions on all my piping schematics. Then I joined the company I work for now and the Manager of Engineering gave me grief about using them. Now I only draw them on my field sketches.

Tankman Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Here, an example, 2" PVC union, 3D. Unions and expansion joints are my best friends, can't live without 'em. Union_2_Inch.dwg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
