FORMULA FOR CALCULATING WEIGHT PER FOOT
ON ROUND STAINLESS AND CARBON STEEL TUBING AND PIPE*
Average Weight /Foot | |
W = 10.68 (D – t)t | |
Minimum Weight/Foot | |
W = 10.68 [D- (t / 0.875)] (t / 0.875) |
|
Where | W = Weight in pounds per foot (carried to four digits) |
D = Outside diameter in inches (to three decimal places) | |
t = Wall thickness in decimals (to three decimal places) | |
*To determine Average or Minimum Wall Weight of square or rectangular tubing, substitute 13.60 for 10.68 in the above formula. | |
