What pipe sizes are there?
1/8" - 10" threaded Cast Iron 11/2" - 15" Copper 1/16 - 10" These are the most common sizes
What is the technical difference between tube and pipe?
The primary difference between pipe and tubing is how the size is designated. Pipe is designated by a "Nominal Pipe Size" based upon the ID (inside diameter) of the most common wall thickness. Tubing is designated by the measured OD (outside diameter). For Example: A 3/4 inch iron pipe has an OD of 1.050 inches, while a 3/4 inch steel tube has an OD of 0.75 inches. The Copper industry calls all cooper tubular products "Tubes" but they designate a "Type". Each type has specified OD and ID dimensions The size of a tube is determined by it's OD and the thickness. The actual OD of a tube is just the same as it's nominal OD. A certain size of a tube will keep the same OD no mater what the thickness is. It is true for pipe except that the actual OD is larger than it's nominal OD. For example, for a 1" schedule 5s pipe, the actual OD is 1.315", the thickness is 0.065" and the ID is 1.185". When it's thickness is schedule xxs (0.358"), then it's ID is reduced to 0.599" while keeping it's OD. Furthermore, the actual OD of a pipe is just the same as it's nominal OD when the size is the same as or larger than 14" per ASME/ANSI B36.10/19 . Consequently, both the size of tube and pipe is measured by it's OD and the thickness. Actually tube is used when we need to transfer heat from its walls and we want this to be happen while in pipes we try to stop the heat transfer such as we use tubes in boilers because we make steam we need to transfer the heat while when we transport steam we use pipes because we wana save heat energy. 2: pipe can be thick according to formula d/t >10 while tube will must thin according to this formula. The Real Difference: Sorry to say; wrong! Pipe and tube is ever so simple. Pipes are used to transport something, and tubes to construct something; hence, tubes are defined by the od "outside diamater" and wt "wall thickness" (for construction stability), and pipes id inside diamater to allow a calculation for transportation viz., speed, volumes etc. (od = id + 2 * wt).
Can you cut into cast iron soil pipe with plastic soil pipe?
You can put up to a 2 inch pipe into a 4 inch. If you are putting 4 inch to 4 inch, either take out a section of the cast and put the PVC in or cut out a section and connect the PVC to the cast with rubber sleeves meant for this. You can use a saddle clamp for the 2 inch. It is a half round piece of PVC with a 2 inch connection in it. It is held on with two U bolts that go around the cast pipe. Put it where you need it and mark the 2 inch hole on the cast. Drill a series of 1/8 inch holes around this circle. when you get them all drilled, you can break out the plug. Try to keep it from falling into the cast pipe. Put the saddle clamp on and connect the PVC pipe as needed. Seal the saddle clamp to the cast pipe with plumbers putty.
How were the old cast iron drain pipes connected and how can they be replaced?
Two ways. Caulked joints and ty-seal joints. Cut the cast iron behind the hub and use a Clamp-all to join it to PVC pipe. If this sounds too difficult, CALL a Plumber.Why do you want to replace your cast iron? That would be alot of work, only replace what you need to. Unless it is your sewer line then i would replace it all to the main. I agree with answer # 1.IN ADDITION:Back in the day, cast iron joints were sealed together with hot lead. Depending on the position of the cast iron pipe and the size of it. Either one can cut the cast iron piping and clamp PVC to it or you can melt the old lead out of the cast iron joints and place PVC piping inside and then "recork" (reseal) it with prattley putty to prevent it from leaking.CORRECT1- Older CI roof drains were installed by Caulking using oakum and then pouring molten lead2- Some older CI drain drains used a Durham system meaning the Cast Iron drains were SCREWED the pipe galvanized in most cases and then the galvanized was caulked into a cast iron bell.It is unprofessional and highly unskilled to replace a cast iron leader line with plastic for several reasons.Seems the non skilled always try to use some type of epoxy..You may want to contact a licensed master plumber who has had the required 10,000 hr apprenticeship training

How do you calculate the od of a pipe from schedule?

Pipe size for a cast iron radiator?
1/2" - 2" depending on demand
Can you replace a section of cast iron drain pipe?
yes you can do it but you have to use a cast iron cutter, or cicular saw with a carbon friccion to cut arround the pipe. But if the cast iron pipe in in the ground and it's not muveble,, it may break.. so you have to be carefull and when you finish cutting it you put a piace of ABS pipe 1/2 shorter in each side. In order to incert the hob conectors..
Can you use pressure fittings on three-quarter inch OD steel pipe for natural gas fittings for kitchen stove or do you always have to use threaded?
Not sure what you mean by pressure fittings. Threaded fittings for steel pipe are pressure fittings. Steel pipe with a 3/4" O.D. is known as 1/2" I.P.S. (Iron Pipe Size) pipe.
What pipe sizes are there?
1/8" - 10" threaded Cast Iron 11/2" - 15" Copper 1/16 - 10" These are the most common sizes
What is the OD of a ¾inch schedule 40 pipe?

What is IPS Piping?
IPS simply means Iron Pipe Size. Piping is a general term used to describe any hollow, cylindrical carrier of liquids. Many piping materials are used to produce both pipe and tubing. Piping and tubing made of the same materials generally use different kinds of fittings. All piping made to the OD (Outside Diameter) of wrought iron pipe is referred to as being Iron Pipe Size, or IPS. The OD of most pipes is the controlling dimension in order to match with fittings. When the term OD or (Outside Diameter) is used, the dimension being referred to is always the actual diameter unless proceeded by the phrase "nominal". Nominal size is a term used for the comparative sizes of piping and tubing rather than the actual dimensions. Like 3/4″ or 1″. Nominal sizes of piping in sprinkler systems are not the actual sizes and are given in inches and fractions of an inch. For a given NPS (Nominal Pipe Size), the OD stays fixed and the wall thickness increases with schedule. For example, you go to the home improvement store to buy some sprinkler pipe and you find Schedule 40 and Class 200 sprinkler pipe available. Both pipes will have the same OD(Outside Diameter), but the Schedule 40 pipe will have a thicker inner wall than the Class 200. Schedule 80 pipe will be thicker than Schedule 40 pipe but will also have the same OD. The gray 1/2″ riser nipples you buy for sprinkler risers in flower areas are often Schedule 80 nipples. So even though IPS is somewhat of a dinosaur term, it is still used when referring to the pipe size of the PVC pipe you are buying at the home improvement store. What makes it even nicer is that the Schedule 40 fittings you buy will fit all of these pipes, because all that is changing is the pipe thickness and not the OD (Outside Diameter) of the pipe.
