How to use this data
Retain the stated nominal size, OD and Type K/L wall. Convert inches by 25.4, derive ID=OD−2wall and circular bore area. Nominal size does not equal OD or ID.
CHECK THE METHOD
Worked example
Nominal 1/2 in Type L: OD 0.625 in and wall 0.040 in give nominal ID 0.545 in = 13.843 mm; Type K at the same size has thicker wall.

Common lookup questions
What should I confirm before using this lookup?
Historical dimensions are an identification aid, not current product certification or a permitted-use/code determination. Verify the actual tube designation, wall and supplier drawing.
