Section 7.0 Sizing Tables
7.1 CSST Tables
Natural Gas
Caution: Locate proper sizing table based on total pressure drop allowed in piping system by local utility for each
installation.
*Table includes losses for four 90 degree bends and two end fittings. To determine flow capacity for tubing runs with additional bends
and/or fittings, add the appropriate number of feet to the actual run length using the formula: L = 1.3n. L = number of feet to be added to
actual run length; n = number of additional bends and/or fittings.
