Weight Calculation

How is the weight of Aluminium foil Pipe calculated?

Pipe weight (kg/m) = (outside diameter − wall thickness) × wall thickness × π × density / 1000. One metre of Ø48.3 × 3 mm Aluminium foil Pipe weighs about 1.166 kg.

What is the density of Aluminium foil?

The density of Aluminium foil is taken as 2.73 g/cm³ (2,730 kg/m³).

Aluminium foil Pipe weight table for standard sizes

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
Ø21.3 × 20.331
Ø33.7 × 2.50.669
Ø48.3 × 31.166
Ø60.3 × 31.474
Ø88.9 × 42.913
