square pipe weights

A steel pipe serves the function of being a hollow cylinder, or alternatively something tubular with a circular area, used to transfer anything from liquid and gas flows to solids, slurries and powdery masses. Not restricted to only a certain purpose, it is also employed for structural applications due to its lightweight, yet stiff nature.

An abundance of materials make up the assembly of pipes, ranging from tried-and-true metals such as carbon steel, stainless steel, and iron to less typical substances such as aluminium, brass, copper, plastic, lead, fiberglass, concrete and steel-reinforced plastic. These alternate resources provide flexibility for crafting pipes best suited to the project.

Steel pipes bear a specific weight depending on their size and wall thickness. In general, the mass of a steel pipe per linear metre (in kg/m) is around:

The formula W = 0.0246615 * D^2 (t-t_w) is expressed in the heading of this article.

The outer diameter of the pipe (D), measured in millimeters (mm), should be evaluated in conjunction with two other factors: the pipe wall thickness (t) and pipe wall thickness allowances (t_w), both expressed in mm.

The heft of a 152 mm Outer Diameter steel tube with an 8 mm wall thickness and extra allowance of 2 mm is quantified thusly:

Calculating the value of W at a152^2 point, with an 8-2 variant, yields the result of 6.58 kg/m.
