Calculated result

This is a general planning estimate. Check units and verify critical results independently.

Why this result needs checking

Engineering results depend on inputs, assumptions and real-world conditions. Use this as a planning/checking value and verify critical work against manufacturer data, drawings or applicable standards. How our calculations work →

How to use it

Use consistent units and realistic inputs.

Estimate hollow circular pipe or tube mass from outside diameter and wall thickness. Enter the requested values, calculate the result, then compare it with drawings, catalogues, standards or manufacturer information relevant to the job.

Common mistakes

  • Entering wall thickness as inside diameter
  • Using nominal pipe size as actual outside diameter
  • Not accounting for galvanising or fittings

Frequently asked questions

What does this calculator calculate?
