What is Id versus od size in copper fittings?

id means inside diameter, od means outside diameter, copper pipe and tubing is measured by the od, therefore the od the pipe or tubing will be the same as the id of the fitting


What is difference OD and NB of pipe?

NB = inside diameter of the tube. OD = outside diameter of the tube.


What is the OD of a three inch pipe?

89mm


How do you calculate OD if ID and Thickness given?

To calculate the outer diameter (OD) of a cylindrical object when you have the inner diameter (ID) and the thickness of the material, you can use the formula: OD = ID + 2 × Thickness. This accounts for the thickness on both sides of the cylinder. Simply add twice the thickness to the inner diameter to get the outer diameter.


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).

Do all 1998 tracker auto transmission have an OD button?

Not all 1998 Chevrolet Tracker models come equipped with an Overdrive (OD) button. The presence of the OD button typically depends on the specific transmission type and trim level of the vehicle. In general, many automatic transmissions from that era included an OD feature, but it's best to check the owner's manual or inspect the vehicle directly to confirm.


For a 1998 Grand Marquis when should overdrive be used?

Leave OD on during regular condition driving to conserve fuel economy. Turn off OD to accelerate better and when climbing hills.
