Seamless Steel Pipe Weight Calculator (Circular Pipe Weight Calculator)

Formula Used to Calculate Pipe Weight

The weight of a circular steel pipe can be calculated using the following formula:

Weight (kg) = (OD − T) × T × 0.02466 × Length

• OD = Outer diameter of pipe in millimeters
• T = Wall thickness in millimeters
• Length = Pipe length in meters
• 0.02466 = Constant derived from steel density

Example Calculation

For a seamless steel pipe with the following dimensions:

• Outer Diameter = 60 mm
• Wall Thickness = 3 mm
• Length = 6 meters

Weight = (60 − 3) × 3 × 0.02466 × 6

Total Weight ≈ 25.49 kg
