Custom Beam Profile

Hi, I'm trying to make a custom beam profile, just 1in x 0.095in (25.4mm x 2.413mm) circular tube. Everything seems to work fine, but I'm pretty sure I'm getting the wrong points from the Beam Profile Generator. It gives me [ 0, 0, 25.4, 0, 0, 22.987 ] which doesn't really make sense since 26.9mm x 2.6mm (a greater OD and thicker wall) tube has points at [ 0, 0, 13.45, 0, 0, 10.85 ]
My profile shouldn't have such larger point values, any help finding the true points?
I made sure the profile was sketched on top plane, a "CC" sequence, a OD of 25.4mm, and thickness of 2.413.
