Long Radius Elbow Weight Chart

Short Radius Elbow Weight Chart

Pipe Diameter and Thickness

While calculating the weight of elbow by formula, we should know dimensions, such as outside diameter,
wall thickness in millimeter and long radius ( 1.5D) or short radius ( 1D).

What is Formula of 90 Degree Elbow Weight

The weight formula is W=0.0387 * S*(D – S) * R / 1000, the unit is kg/piece. What’s the meaning of each
letter? Let’s explain to you.

W means Weight.
S means Thickness in mm.
D means Outside Diameter in mm.
R means Radius that LR=1.5D, SR=1D.

Now we take “90 Degree Elbow LR Seamless 6″ Sch 40 BW ASTM A234 WPB” as sample. From above
diameter and thickness chart, we know the outside diameter is 168.3mm and thickness is 7.11mm. The
weight will be 0.0387 x 7.11 x ( 168.3 – 7.11 ）x 1.5 x 168.3 / 1000 = 11kg/piece.
