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).
A four inch pipe carry how much more volume than a 2 inch pipe?
It is based on the flow area, which is proportional to the square of the diameter. 2 squared = 4. 4 squared = 16. So, the 4 inch pipe can take 16/4 = 4 times the volume of the 2 inch pipe. It might be less confusing if you had picked sizes other than 2 and 4. This is a rough calculation, since pipe inside diameters are not the same as nominal sizes, but close enough for most purposes.
How do you cut a carbon steel pipe 4 inch?
A handheld bandsaw or a cutting torch, along a straight line made by a wraparound pipe marker. our company has the steel pipe machine and you can cut it in 4 inch-haihao pipe fitting group sales@haihaogroup.com
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.

What is the OD of a ¾inch schedule 40 pipe?

What is the pressure rating of a 2 inch. and a 4 inch schedule 40 carbon steel pipe at 70 degree Fahrenheit?
Schedule 40 welded carbon steel pipe (black) is rated at a working pressure of 150 psi. It should be printed on it. Schedule 80 welded is rated at 300 psi. If U want higher rated piping you must use seamless (not welded) pipe. Hope this helps!
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.

Every time! lol Seriously a 10-inch pipe is 5/4 of an 8-inch pipe
What is the XXh brass pipe?
XXh in piping is a determination of the wall thickness of the pipe. XXh stands for double extra heavy (or double extra strong) under an old standard measuring system. It has the thickest pipe wall of any other. The actual thickness is dependent on the nominal pipe diameter. Present determination of wall thicknesses of pipes is called schedules. Schedule 10 pipe is the thinnest while schedule 160 is the thickest. Heavy pipe is slightly thicker than today's sch. 40 pipe, extra heavy slightly thicker than sch. 80 pipe, and double extra heavy is slightly thicker than today's sch. 160 pipe. XXh pipe is no longer in use commercially and has been replaced with schedule 160 pipe, XXh Brass or Bronze pipe is forged or molded from bronze, rather than Iron or steel. Some wall thicknesses of double extra strong pipes are: 1/2 inch nom. dia. = 0.294 inch thick 3/4 inch nom. dia. = 0.308 inch thick 1 inch nom. dia. = 0. 358 inch thick 1 1/4 inch nom. dia. = 0.382 inch thick 1 1/2 inch nom. dia. = 0.400 inch thick 2 inch nom. dia. = 0.436 inch thick

How do you compare the volumes of 6 inch pipe with 4 in pipe?
By calculating the areas of circles with diameters 6 and 4 and comparing those: pi3^2=pi9 pi2^2=pi4 pi9/pi4=9/4=2.25 So the 6 inch pipe holds 2.25 times as much as the 4 inch pipe.

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.
