Carbon Pipe

Weight Calculation

How is the weight of Carbon Pipe calculated?

Pipe weight (kg/m) = (outside diameter − wall thickness) × wall thickness × π × density / 1000. One metre of Ø48.3 × 3 mm Carbon Pipe weighs about 0.726 kg.

What is the density of Carbon?

The density of Carbon is taken as 1.7 g/cm³ (1,700 kg/m³).

Carbon Pipe weight table for standard sizes

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
Ø21.3 × 20.206
Ø33.7 × 2.50.417
Ø48.3 × 30.726
Ø60.3 × 30.918
Ø88.9 × 41.814
Ø114.3 × 42.356

How accurate is the calculated weight?

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