Tube Weight Calculator









Formula

To calculate the weight of a tube:

\[ W = \pi \times (r2 - r1)^2 \times h \times d \]

Where:

Weight of Tube Definition

The weight of a tube is typically used to describe the total weight of a steel pipe.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Step 1: Subtract the inside radius from the outside radius and square the result:

\[ (2 - 1)^2 = 1^2 = 1 \]

Step 2: Multiply by π:

\[ \pi \times 1 = 3.14159 \]

Step 3: Multiply by the length:

\[ 3.14159 \times 10 = 31.4159 \]

Step 4: Multiply by the density:

\[ 31.4159 \times 0.285 = 8.96 \text{ lbs} \]
