Pipefitter_Pro vs PipingData
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Pipefitter_Pro
This app is a pipe calculation tool that helps determine offsets, angles, and pipe segments. It offers a visual representation of angles and a slider for quick offset dimensioning, with dynamic angle updates. Future updates aim to include 3D angle calculations.
- Calculate pipe offsets
- Determine angles
- Calculate pipe segments
- Visual angle representation
- Slider for offset dimensioning
- Dynamic angle updates

Pipefitter Pro is a calculator for pipefitters. It calculates offsets, elbow angles and spool lengths, and draws what it works out. Choose a case from the menu, enter the pipe diameter and elbow radius on the workshop keypad, then read the available results: angles, the spool between elbows, elbow takeout, arc lengths and caliper dimensions. CASES AND VIEWS • BACK TO BACK — two elbows, with either the angle or the offset unknown. • S TYPE — offset, travel or a fixed 45° option. • TEE OFFSET — calculations that include the branch diameter. • CALCULATOR — one elbow cut out of a 90°. • 3D — two elbows in space, set using the A, B and C dimensions of a box. • SLIDER / SLIDER S TYPE / SLIDER TEE — change the angle and watch the offset change. • 3D SLIDER — set the elbow orientation in a spatial model and read the angles, the insert and the live box dimensions. The box is a visual reference, not a cut length. Depending on the case, results appear on the Angle, Dimensions and Elbow tabs; selected cases add a 3D view you can rotate and zoom. UNITS AND INPUT Lengths in millimeters, centimeters and inches. Feet-and-inches notation and decimal or fractional inches are also supported. Choose 1/16 or 1/32 precision for inch fractions. Angles are given in decimal degrees. The workshop keypad and fraction picker help you enter dimensions; add frequently used cases to favorites. PIPE AND ELBOW DIMENSIONS The DIMENSIONS tile opens the built-in NPS/DN table. It contains outside diameters and centerline radii for long-radius and short-radius elbows. Add and edit dimensions, then use them in calculations. Save a list backup to a file and restore the list from a backup. BEFORE YOU CUT Pipefitter Pro supports the preparation of workshop work. Check the dimensions against your technical documentation and your shop procedures before cutting and welding.

PipingData combines trigonometric calculations, geometric developments and technical layout tools to support professionals in preparation, fabrication and installation work. Main features: - Straight, angled and offset branch connections, for equal or different pipe diameters. - Calculation and development of single and double elbows, in the same plane or with an orientation. - Development of segmented elbows. - Calculation and development of concentric and eccentric reducers. - Interactive data visualization with instant display of results and layout measurements. - Generation of layout templates in A4, A3, A2, A1 and A0 formats. - Print configuration and PDF export of templates for printing or sharing. - Choice of generator lines: 4, 8, 12, 16, 24 or 32. - Scientific calculator adapted to the needs of piping professionals. - Trigonometric tools and unit conversions. - Multilingual interface for international use. Precision layout and development PipingData allows you to prepare geometric developments from entered dimensions and parameters. Generated templates make it easier to transfer markings onto pipes and carry out fabrication work in the workshop or on site. A visual and interactive approach Explore different piping configurations using interactive SVG representations. Calculations and layout measurements are directly linked to graphical elements, making work easier to understand and prepare. Ready-to-print templates Configure templates according to diameter, number of generator lines and suitable paper size. Export developments as PDF files or use your device's printing system. Developed by an industrial pipefitting professional, PipingData combines hands-on field experience with modern software development technologies. From preparing calculations to marking out pipes, PipingData supports pipefitters and metal fabricators in their daily operations, both in workshops and on site. Have a question or suggestion?
