How to use this data

Preserve NPS/DN designation mappings; convert source inch OD and wall exactly to mm. Calculated ID = OD−2wall, bore area = πID²/4 and L/m = area[mm²]/1000. Schedule 40/80 are filters on this page, not duplicate URLs.

    CHECK THE METHOD

    Worked example

    2 in Schedule 40: OD 2.375 in, wall 0.154 in, calculated ID 2.067 in = 52.5018 mm. Schedule 80 at the same NPS has a smaller bore.

    2 in · DN50 · Schedule 40
    Calculation / lookup method

    Preserve NPS/DN designation mappings; convert source inch OD and wall exactly to mm. Calculated ID = OD−2wall, bore area = πID²/4 and L/m = area[mm²]/1000. Schedule 40/80 are filters on this page, not duplicate URLs.

    Calculated nominal ID
    52.502 mm
    Outside diameter
    60.325 mm
    Wall thickness
    3.912 mm

    ID is derived from the bounded published OD/wall facts. NPS 2 is a designation, not an exact two-inch bore; confirm the supplied product.

    2 inch Schedule 80 with the same nominal OD

    Given

    Selected row
    2 in · DN50 · Schedule 80
    Calculation / lookup method

    Preserve NPS/DN designation mappings; convert source inch OD and wall exactly to mm. Calculated ID = OD−2wall, bore area = πID²/4 and L/m = area[mm²]/1000. Schedule 40/80 are filters on this page, not duplicate URLs.

    Result

    Calculated nominal ID
    49.251 mm
    Outside diameter
    60.325 mm
    Wall thickness
    5.537 mm

    The thicker wall reduces bore at the same listed OD. That difference changes velocity and pressure loss at a fixed flow.

    Common lookup questions

    Can I use these values as a universal specification?

    Nominal ID is derived from nominal dimensions, not a guaranteed measured inside diameter. No pressure rating, corrosion allowance, tolerance or code compliance is established.

    TRACEABLE DATA

    Sources, scope & verification

    Dataset v1.2.0
    Last verified:

    Nine selected NPS 1/2–4 sizes, two schedules, from the archived Wheatland A53 product sheet. NPS5 is excluded due to source inch/mm disagreement. DN is a designation, not measured bore.

    Values are curated product facts or generated scenarios. Paid standards, complete catalogs and source diagrams are not reproduced. A verification date applies to this documented subset.
