Pipe Wall Thickness Charts (in inches and mm. by NPS/Schedule) by Material Grade (CS, AS, SS)

Pipe schedule charts, extracted from the ASME B36.10 and ASME B36.19 specifications, are useful in the engineering and design of piping systems across various industries. These charts provide standardized wall thickness dimensions for carbon, alloy, stainless steel pipes, facilitating the selection and specification process for engineers, designers, and industry professionals. Understanding these charts and their applications is crucial for ensuring that piping systems are designed and constructed to meet the required standards for safety, efficiency, and reliability.

PIPES WALL THICKNESS IN INCHES (BY NPS/SCHEDULE)

This article focuses on the standard wall thickness sizes (in inches and in millimeters) of carbon, alloy, stainless/duplex, and nickel alloy pipes. The wall thickness is expressed according to a special designation, called “Schedule”.
