Because threading thin wall pipe renders the pressure rating ineffective, as it thins the wall to much to be able to withstand the pressure.

Yes, schedule 10 stainless steel pipe can be threaded, but it is important to note that its thinner walls make it less suitable for threading compared to heavier schedules. Proper tools and techniques should be used to ensure clean threads without compromising the pipe's integrity. Additionally, it is advisable to use appropriate thread sealants or fittings to prevent leaks.
Yes, Schedule 10 pipe can be threaded, but it is important to use the appropriate technique and tools due to its thinner walls compared to heavier schedules. Threading may not be recommended for all applications, as it can weaken the pipe. It's essential to ensure that the threads are cut properly to maintain a good seal and structural integrity. Always consult relevant codes and standards for the specific application.
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.
Thicker pipe wall is required to contain higher fluid pressures. For the same fluid pressure, a thicker pipe wall is required for a larger diameter pipe than that required for a pipe of smaller diameter. A schedule of pipe sizes and wall thicknesses has been established by ASTM standards governing manufacturing of pipe. A previous description of pipe wall thicknesses as "Standard", "Extra Strong" and "Double Extra Strong" has been supplanted by a schedule of 10, 20, 30, 40 60, 80, 100, 120 and 160. Schedule 40 pipe generally compares with the previous use of "Standard". For metal pipe, Schedule 80 pipe has a thicker wall and can withstand greater pressures than a Sch 40 pipe. A point of confusion is that for PVC piping, Schedule 80 pipe has a thinner wall than Sch 40 pipe.

Steel pipe that is schedule 40, means that the steel pipe has a certain amount of threads on it. It also means that it can't be longer than about 10 feet.

16 gauge pipe refers to the wall thickness of the pipe exclusive of its diameter.It is 0.064 inches thick, this is a steel wire gauge measurement.Pipes are typically sold by schedule numbers. A wall thickness of 0.064 inches would correspond to pipe schedule 40 for 1/8" diameter pipe (0.068"), schedule 10 for 1/4" and 3/8" pipe (0.065") and schedule 5 for pipe diameters 1/2" to 2" (0.065"). Over 2" diameter pipe, schedule 5 (the smallest wall thickness) is thicker than 16 gauge steel.
What schedule 10 ,20, 40, 80, 120????

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.
The difference in thickness is not by the ASTM grade, but rather by the term "Schedule" - as in Schedule's 10, 40, and 80 - with schedule 10 having the lighest wall thickness, and schedule 80 having the thickest.

What does the schedule have to do with the material as schedule is the wall thickness Schedule 10, 20, 40 80 and 120 (XXH) The Schedule is telling you the wall (INTERNAL) thickness 10, 20 40, 80 and 120 XXH Whether it be steel, brass, galvanized and wrought ` About the pressure capacity, it is not the same because every material such as steel, brass, galvanized or wrought has a different strenght of materials.
Hello??? black steel comes in various schedules , schedule 10, 20 40 ,80 ,120 the thicker the wall the higher the pressure the piping can withstand
