What Is TracPipe?
TracPipe
is a flexible stainless steel piping material used for natural
gas and propane installations. TracPipe is currently in use
for gas piping systems in single and multi-family residential
as well as commercial and industrial buildings. TracPipe's
superior corrugated tubing coupled with AutoFlare fittings
combine to make the best CSST product available. TracPipe's
full range of sizes (3/8" to 2") and proven reliability
make it the first choice at all residential, commercial, and
industrial job sites.
Gas
piping has a new look
At the hub of the installation is a multiport manifold. From
there TracPipe can go anywhere - around obstructions, across
attics, or between joists and studs. You pull it just like
electric wiring. Protect it with striker plates and your options
are endless.
Adding
a last minute appliance in a TracPipe house? No need to rip
out that perfect drywall. Grab some AutoFlare fittings and
a tee - you can bend TracPipe with your hands and it holds
its shape. Add-ons have never been easier.
Doing a renovation and need to maintain architectural integrity?
No problem, just connect into existing black iron pipe and
feed TracPipe up to the new master bedroom fireplace or second
floor laundry.
Need to supply gas to an outdoor barbeque or pool heater;
TracPipePS-II is the first choice
for underground and under slab installations providing standard
250-foot lengths, a factory installed watertight sleeve and
vent capable containment fittings.
TracPipe
is accepted throughout the US and Canada. It can be run through
buildings in the same locations where rigid pipe materials
have traditionally been used with a fraction of the threaded
joints and in a fraction of the time required for installation.
TracPipe was designed with inner diameters that are very close
to black iron pipe. Because of the corrugated interior different
capacity charts are used for sizing of CSST systems. Shown
below are TracPipe charts for low-pressure natural gas and
propane as well as elevated pressure (2-PSI) charts for natural
gas and propane. Also available for free download is our Specifier
Sizing Program v3.5.
