What is IPS in plumbing?
Iron Pipe size
What is an ips plumbing connection?
Iron Pipe Size
How much does well drilling pipe weigh?
Steel pipe varies in weight according to size and thickness (schedule).
What pipe has the smallest id schedule 40 schedule 80 or schedule 160?
For a given pipe size, schedule 160 would have the smallest ID (and thicker wall). Wall thickness and pressure rating goes up with increasing schedule number, causing the ID to go down with increasing schedule number.
What is the difference between schedule 40 and 10 gauge pipe?
The gauge of the pipe is the wall thickness. It is easier to say Schedule 40 pipe than .180 inch wall thickness. This is the SCH 40 wall thickness for a standard 12" pipe and the actual gauge thickness will vary based on pipe size and material. The larger the Schedule number, the thicker the pipe wall thickness. Pipe Schedule is also expressed in Std., X-Stg., and XX-Stg. since some thicknesses are more common than others.

What pipe has the smallest id schedule 40 schedule 80 or schedule 160?
For a given pipe size, schedule 160 would have the smallest ID (and thicker wall). Wall thickness and pressure rating goes up with increasing schedule number, causing the ID to go down with increasing schedule number.
What do the letters ips stand for in plumbing?
Traditionally, Iron Pipe Size, but can also mean that it has male pipe threads (threads on the outside of the 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.
