Steel Pipe Weight Calculator — free online calculator.

Formula

Cross-section (in²)=π/4×(OD²−ID²); weight(lb)=section×length(ft)×12/1728×material density(lb/ft³).
  • Steel Pipe Weight Calculator calculates its result from Density, Length, Od, Id. It uses the formula Weight = (π/4) × (OD² − ID²) × Length × Density. Change any input to recalculate the result instantly.
  • The main inputs are Outer Diameter (OD), Inner Diameter (ID), Pipe Length, Material. Enter them in the units and format shown in the calculator.
  • Keep measurements and project assumptions consistent before comparing or combining values.
  • Changing any input above recalculates the result with the same calculation engine used by this page.

Example: Steel Pipe Weight

Inputs
  • Outer Diameter (OD): 2 in
  • Inner Diameter (ID): 1.5
  • Pipe Length: 10 ft
  • Material: steel

Using Density = 2, Length = 3, Od = 4, Id = 5, the calculated result is -42.4115008235.
