Reference information
Commonly cited families (verify edition on your certificate):
- GOST 8731/8732
- EN 10216
- EN 10297
- ASTM A53/A106
- API 5L
Dimensional and mass references commonly cite GOST 8731/8732 (seamless pipes), EN 10216 / EN 10297 for European carbon and alloy tubes, and ASTM A53 / A106 / API 5L for US line-pipe schedules. Always match the edition referenced on your mill certificate.

Illustrative values for common sizes of Pipe at the density you selected. For procurement, always verify against mill certificates.
| OD (mm) | Wall (mm) | kg/m | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 48 | 3 | 3.329 | |
| 60 | 3 | 4.217 | |
| 76 | 3.5 | 6.258 | |
| 89 | 4 | 8.385 | |
| 114 | 4.5 | 12.152 |
Figures follow the same geometric model as the calculator above; rounding and simplifications apply.
Method
How to calculate weight
Core model
V = π · (R² − r²) · L where R = D/2 , r = R − t
m = ρ · VField names
Multiply the cross-sectional steel area (outer circle minus inner) by length to get volume, then multiply volume by density (kg/m³). Our hollow-round engine does this automatically—popular searches include pipe weight per meter, steel tube mass, and schedule pipe lbs/ft equivalents once you convert inches to mm.
Switch units in the header: metric gives kg/m trends; imperial helps when drawings are in inches and you need pounds for freight.
