Notes:
  • The size of all pipe in Table above is identified by the dimensionless designator nominal pipe size (NPS) or diameter nominal (DN).
  • Pipe NPS 12 (DN 300) and smaller have outside diameters numerically larger than their corresponding sizes. In contrast, the outside diameters of tubes are numerically identical to the size number for all sizes.
  • The manufacture of pipe NPS 1/8 (DN 6) to NPS 12 (DN 300), inclusive, is based on a standardized outside diameter (O.D.).
  • This O.D. was originally selected so that pipe with a standard O.D. and having a wall thickness that was typical of the period would have an inside diameter (I.D.) approximately equal to the nominal size. Although there is no such relation between the existing standard thickness - O.D. and nominal size - these nominal sizes and standard O.D.s continue in use as standard.
  • The manufacture of pipe NPS 14 (DN 350) and larger proceeds on the basis of an O.D. corresponding to the nominal size.

Pipes weight tolerance

The pipes weight tolerance depends on the nominal pipe size.

  • Pipes NPS 12 (DN300, 323.8mm) and under, weight tolerance is.. -3.5% / +10%
  • Pipes over NPS 12 (DN300, 323.8mm),weight tolerance is.. -5% / +10%
  • Pipe of NPS 4 (DN100, 114.3mm) and smaller may be weighed in convenient lots; pipe in sizes larger than NPS 4 shall be weighed separately

Pipes length tolerance
  • Seamless and Welded (no filler metal added).
    If definite cut lengths are ordered, no length of pipe shall be under the length specified and not more than 1/4 in. (6.35 mm) over that specified.
  • Forged and Bored, Cast, and Cast Cold-Wrought.
    If definite cut lengths are ordered, no length of pipe shall be under the length specified and not more than 1/8 in. (3.2 mm) over that specified.
  • For pipe ordered to random lengths, the lengths and variations shall be agreed upon between the manufacturer and purchaser.
