Iron Pipe

Weight Calculation

How is the weight of Iron Pipe calculated?

Pipe weight (kg/m) = (outside diameter − wall thickness) × wall thickness × π × density / 1000. One metre of Ø48.3 × 3 mm Iron Pipe weighs about 3.356 kg.

What is the density of Iron?

The density of Iron is taken as 7.86 g/cm³ (7,860 kg/m³).

Iron Pipe weight table for standard sizes

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
Ø21.3 × 20.953
Ø33.7 × 2.51.926
Ø48.3 × 33.356
Ø60.3 × 34.245
Ø88.9 × 48.386
Ø114.3 × 410.90

How accurate is the calculated weight?

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