Yes Larry, this works for any pipe type. The key thing to understand is that: whatever you specify under “Flange” will take precedence over what you specify under “Union” to split. If you click on any Revit Union and then right click, and go to “edit family: Once it opens, you will see that under “Family Categories and Parameters” (top left), you will notice that: “Category” is set to: “Pipe Fitting”, and “Part Type” is set to: “Union”. On the other hand, on the Threaded flange: “Part Type” is set to: “Flange”. A rule is: Union: Splits with (1) fitting. Flange: Splits with (2) fittings (one at the end of each pipe)
Hey alex how to split grooved pipes and have only 1 join coupling.. My point is in fabrication like i want to split my pipe according to manufacture standards
Thanks Titto. For bolts, you have to go into Revit Fabrication. Let me know in the comments if you would like me to create a video on Revit Fabrication.
@@bimitup yes sir I want to know how the process is, I'm working on a project to make pipes using flanged connections and there is a flanged connection using bolts.
Great video Alex!! greetings from Mex.
Thank you Larry. I'm glad you found it useful. Stay tuned for new videos.

You are welcome Derek!
Great video... pls do more videos
Thank you, I will
Your video is very useful .And I would like to know ask one question . Can we add pipe socket automatically between 6 meter to 6 meter pipe length ?
Yes. With Revit fabrication

Hi I am going to split my pipe with a coupler but my starting elevation of pipe is changing so can you please clarify this..
Hi Vishu. I'm not following you... are you trying to split a pipe and your pipe changes elevation when you introduce the coupling?

Just insert a split. "SL" and leave it there =)
the video is very good I like it, how do I add the bolts ?
Thanks Titto.
