Duralumin Pipe

Weight Calculation

How is the weight of Duralumin Pipe calculated?

Pipe weight (kg/m) = (outside diameter − wall thickness) × wall thickness × π × density / 1000. One metre of Ø48.3 × 3 mm Duralumin Pipe weighs about 1.195 kg.

What is the density of Duralumin?

The density of Duralumin is taken as 2.8 g/cm³ (2,800 kg/m³).

Duralumin Pipe weight table for standard sizes

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
Ø21.3 × 20.340
Ø33.7 × 2.50.686
Ø48.3 × 31.195
Ø60.3 × 31.512
Ø88.9 × 42.987
Ø114.3 × 43.881

How accurate is the calculated weight?

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