304 4 sch 10 stainless steel pipe weight calculation formula
Leave a message
To calculate the weight of a 4-inch Schedule 10 (SCH 10) stainless steel pipe, use the following formula:
🔹Weight per meter (kg/m) = (OD - Wall thickness) × Wall thickness × 0.02466
🔹0.02466 is the density constant for stainless steels with a density of approximately 7.93 g/cm³ (such as 304, 316, etc.).

According to standard dimensions, a 4-inch SCH 10 stainless steel pipe has an OD of 114.3 mm and a wall thickness of 3.05 mm.
Substituting these values into the formula:
🔹(114.3 mm - 3.05 mm) × 3.05 mm × 0.02466 ≈ 8.37 kg/m
Therefore, the theoretical weight of a 4-inch SCH 10 stainless steel pipe is approximately 8.37 kg/m.
If you need to calculate the total weight for different lengths, simply multiply the weight per meter by the length of the pipe. For example, the total weight of a 10-meter pipe is approximately:
🔹8.37 kg/m × 10 m = 83.7 kg
Please note that the actual weight may vary due to manufacturing tolerances and slight differences in material density.
