need a lisp program for API flanges

[mtnequip]

I am new to the lisp program thing...now that i have it i dont know how i have gotten this far without it. I need to find either 2D blocks of heavy steel pipe fittings and API flanges or a lisp program....anybody got any suggestions. i model them myself but it takes me a while and im loosing time that i could be working on other things.

 

thanks

Would either of these help at all?

What exactly is an 'API' flange? Have you tried contacting (or even looking on the website) of whatever company it is that supplies you with these for CAD files?

[mtnequip]

API flanges are for high pressure vessels and have different gasket options than ANSI flanges.

But what difference would this make to your drawing?

 

Most, if not all, just use the ASME/ANSI B16.5 blocks, dimensionally they are very close, most likely why no one has API blocks.

 

As mentioned, check with manufacturers websites and an email or a phone call usually will yield some results.
