Pie-Cut Tube Mock-up Planner – Exhaust, Roll Cage & Fabrication (3D Printable)

$39.76

Plan complex tube routing before cutting a single piece of metal!

This 3D printable pie-cut tube mock-up planner lets you plan, test and visualise complex tube layouts before fabrication.

Originally developed for custom exhaust fabrication, it is also ideal for roll cages, intake and charge piping, custom frames and other tubular fabrication projects.

Select your required tube OD, pie-cut angle and CLR ratio to create mock-up pieces matching your actual tubing. Multiple segments snap together, allowing you to physically build complete tube runs and check fitment, clearance, routing and geometry before cutting any metal.

Each piece is clearly marked with its Ø diameter, angle and CLR ratio, making it easy to identify configurations and transfer your finished mock-up to the real fabrication.

Tube size, Angle & CLR
Choose from a wide range of tube diameters, multiple pie-cut angles and centerline radius (CLR) ratios. The CLR ratio determines the bend radius relative to the tube diameter, from tight bends to more gradual routing.

Your files are generated specifically for the selected OD, angle and CLR ratio, giving you an accurate physical reference for your fabrication.

Snap-Fit Modular Design
The individual pie-cut sections are designed to snap together, allowing you to quickly add, remove and rotate segments while experimenting with different tube routes.

Each pie cut features 24 equally spaced rotational notches, with every notch representing exactly 15° of rotation. This makes it easy to accurately control and repeat the rotation between individual segments when creating complex three-dimensional tube routes.

CLR Ratio Guide
The CLR (Centerline Radius) ratio determines the bend radius relative to the tube outside diameter. A lower ratio creates a tighter bend, while a higher ratio creates a more gradual bend.

For example, a 50 mm tube with a 1.5D CLR has a centerline radius of 75 mm.


Custom sizing option
Can’t find the combination you need? Select the Custom Size option and provide your required OD, Angle and CLR ratio. Your custom file will be manually created to your requested dimensions and sent to you once completed.


What you’ll get

Instant download
For standard configurations, your files are generated based on your selected OD, angle and CLR ratio and made available digitally so you can start printing right away.

Custom Size orders are manually created to your requested dimensions and will therefore not be available as an immediate download.


Important
This is a digital product, not a physical item.
No product will be shipped. A 3D printer is required to create the tool yourself.


Personal-Use License
Your purchase includes a personal, non-commercial license. You may print the design as many times as you like for yourself, friends and family, provided the prints are supplied free of charge.

The digital files may not be shared, redistributed or resold, and physical prints may not be sold or used commercially.

Each file is individually digitally watermarked upon generation/download, allowing unauthorized distribution to be traced back to the original purchase.
