Weight Calculation

How is the weight of Cast Steel Pipe calculated?

Pipe weight (kg/m) = (outside diameter − wall thickness) × wall thickness × π × density / 1000. One metre of Ø48.3 × 3 mm Cast Steel Pipe weighs about 3.352 kg.

What is the density of Cast Steel?

The density of Cast Steel is taken as 7.85 g/cm³ (7,850 kg/m³).
