Item Pipe
Item Pipe moves items between chests and machines at 2 items per second, with no power cost and a wrench-configurable side.
Description
Item Pipe is crafted from 8 silver ingots around an iron gear and yields 8 pipes per recipe for Minecraft 26.2 on Fabric or NeoForge. Each side switches between four roles with a right-click of the wrench: EXTRACT pulls from the neighbor, INSERT pushes into it, NEUTRAL passes both ways, and DISABLED closes the side. The role shows on the model itself — an orange mouth takes, a teal nozzle gives — and Item Pipe never loses or duplicates items, so if the target inventory is full the pipe simply waits for room.

How to set up Item Pipe in Minecraft
-
1
Place the pipe line
Lay Item Pipe blocks in a line from the source chest to the destination inventory.
-
2
Set the source side to EXTRACT
Right-click the side facing the source chest with a wrench until it shows an orange mouth — that side now pulls items out.
-
3
Set the destination side to INSERT
Right-click the side facing the target until it shows a teal nozzle, so Item Pipe pushes items in.
-
4
Let it run
Item Pipe moves 2 items per second automatically and never loses items — if the target fills up, it waits for room.
Item Pipe runs on its own with no power cost, so it works anywhere in an Ala Industrial base for Minecraft 26.2.

Frequently asked questions
Does Item Pipe need power?
No. Item Pipe is fully passive and moves 2 items per second with no EU cost.
How fast is Item Pipe?
Item Pipe transfers 2 items per second, so a full stack of 64 takes about 32 seconds end to end.
How do I configure Item Pipe?
Right-click any side with a wrench to cycle between EXTRACT, INSERT, NEUTRAL, and DISABLED — an orange mouth pulls and a teal nozzle pushes.
How do I craft Item Pipe?
Place 8 silver ingots around an iron gear in a crafting grid to get 8 Item Pipes.
Can Item Pipe lose my items?
No. Each transfer is atomic, so if the destination is full the item stays where it was until there is room.
