Aluminum Pipe

Weight Calculation

How is the weight of Aluminum Pipe calculated?

Pipe weight (kg/m) = (outside diameter − wall thickness) × wall thickness × π × density / 1000. One metre of Ø48.3 × 3 mm Aluminum Pipe weighs about 1.161 kg.

What is the density of Aluminum?

The density of Aluminum is taken as 2.72 g/cm³ (2,720 kg/m³).

Aluminum Pipe weight table for standard sizes

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
Ø21.3 × 20.330
Ø33.7 × 2.50.667
Ø48.3 × 31.161
Ø60.3 × 31.469
Ø88.9 × 42.902
Ø114.3 × 43.770

How accurate is the calculated weight?

Values are theoretical; production tolerances and corner radii can make the actual weight differ by 2–5%.
