Estimate the weight of a pipe based on its outer diameter, wall thickness, length, and material.
How to Use the Pipe Weight Calculator
Enter the pipe's "Outer Diameter (mm)" and "Wall Thickness (mm)".
Enter the "Pipe Length (m)" and select the "Pipe Material".
Click "Calculate" to see the estimated pipe weight in kg.
Frequently Asked Questions
Weight = Cross-Sectional Area of the pipe wall (Outer Diameter² − Inner Diameter², using π/4) × Length × Material Density. The inner diameter is derived from outer diameter minus twice the wall thickness.
Density varies hugely by material — steel (~7,850 kg/m³) is roughly 5-6× denser than PVC (~1,400 kg/m³), so a steel pipe of the same size is much heavier.
They're typical approximate values for each material; exact density can vary slightly by manufacturer, pipe schedule/class, and alloy composition.
