Graphite Pipe

Weight Calculation

How is the weight of Graphite Pipe calculated?

Pipe weight (kg/m) = (outside diameter − wall thickness) × wall thickness × π × density / 1000. One metre of Ø48.3 × 3 mm Graphite Pipe weighs about 0.897 kg.

What is the density of Graphite?

The density of Graphite is taken as 2.1 g/cm³ (2,100 kg/m³).

Graphite Pipe weight table for standard sizes

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
Ø21.3 × 20.255
Ø33.7 × 2.50.515
Ø48.3 × 30.897
Ø60.3 × 31.134
Ø88.9 × 42.241
Ø114.3 × 42.911

How accurate is the calculated weight?

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