Rohr & Tube Gewicht pro Meter
Pipe weight per meter = cross-section area × density. For hollow tube: area = π/4 × (OD² − ID²). Carbon steel density 7850 kg/m³. Use the round tube calculator for quick totals.

Calculation
- Measure OD and wall. Note outside diameter and wall thickness (mm).
- Compute cross-section area. Convert to meters; area = π/4 × (OD² − (OD−2t)²).
- Apply density. kg/m = area (m²) × 7850 kg/m³.
- Use calculator. Enter dimensions in the round tube tool.
Example
Ø60.3 × 3.2 mm wall: ~4.4 kg/m theoretical for carbon steel (verify in calculator).
FAQ
Schedule vs OD/wall? Always confirm actual OD and wall; schedule names vary by standard.
Square/rect tube? Use the square or rectangular tube calculators for those profiles.
