Starting the command will open the dialog box. Select a Standard Length or specify a Maximum Length.

Enter a Tolerance to limit those pipes that will receive couplings. In this example, only those pipes that are 7’-6” or longer will receive couplings.

Press OK and select the lines.

Couplings are applied to the two upper pipes because they exceed 7’-6”.

The lower pipe did not receive a coupling since it is less than 7’-6”.
