Cobalt Pipe

Weight Calculation

How is the weight of Cobalt Pipe calculated?

Pipe weight (kg/m) = (outside diameter − wall thickness) × wall thickness × π × density / 1000. One metre of Ø48.3 × 3 mm Cobalt Pipe weighs about 3.800 kg.

What is the density of Cobalt?

The density of Cobalt is taken as 8.9 g/cm³ (8,900 kg/m³).

Cobalt Pipe weight table for standard sizes

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
Ø21.3 × 21.079
Ø33.7 × 2.52.181
Ø48.3 × 33.800
Ø60.3 × 34.806
Ø88.9 × 49.495
Ø114.3 × 412.34

How accurate is the calculated weight?

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