The outer diameter of a 2" PVC pipe is approximately 2.375 inches.
The outer diameter of 1/2 inch PVC pipe is approximately 0.84 inches.
The outside diameter of a 1/2 inch PVC pipe is approximately 0.840 inches.
A schedule 40 PVC 2 inch pipe has an outer diameter of 2.375 inches and a wall thickness of 0.154 inches. It is commonly used for water supply and drainage systems in residential and commercial buildings.
Consider going across the width of the pipe: Outer diameter = Thickness + Inner diameter + Thickness so 2*Thickness = Outer diameter - Inner diameter = 2.5 - 2.1 = 0.4 inches and therefore, Thickness = 0.2 inches.
Outer radius minus inner radius Subtract the inside diameter from the outside diameter, then divide the difference by 2.
Can you calculate the ID of a pipe when you have the OD to be 10.75" and the wall thickness to be 0.5"Depends on what you know about it. If you have the outer diameter and you know the wall thickness, then ID = OD-2 x wall thickness
Electrical trade sizes of PVC conduit are, - 1/2" = 12.5mm, 3/4" = 19mm, 1" = 25mm, 1 1/4" = 32mm, 1 1/2" = 38mm, 2" = 50mm, 3" = 75mm, 4" = 100mm.
Assuming that the INNER DIAMETER of the PVC pipe is 4" (...likely not the case, so you'll need to recalculate for your pipe's dimensions): the volume of the pipe would be calculated as follows: 4" diameter = 2" radius volume_cylinder = Pi*r^2*L; where r = 2" and L = 12" the cylinder therefore has a capacity of 150.8 cubic inches. a gallon of water has the volume of 231 cubic inches. your pipe can hold 0.653 gallons of water. you'll need about 18.38 inch lengths of 4" PVC to hold each gallon of water. again, these calculations rely on the INNER DIAMETER of the pipe being measured at 4" - if this is an outer diameter measurement, the above calculation for the capacity is OVERstated; the 18.38" calculation is UNDERstated.

To calculate the area of a pipe (which is a cylindrical shape), you can use the formula for the cross-sectional area of a cylinder, ( A = \pi r^2 ), where ( r ) is the radius of the pipe. If you have the diameter, you can find the radius by dividing the diameter by 2. For a pipe with a specific outer diameter and thickness, you would use the inner radius to find the area of the flow section.
A standard water line PVC pipe typically has a width (diameter) of either 1/2 inch, 3/4 inch, 1 inch, or 1.5 inches.
The best way to connect two sections of PVC pipe with a 2 inch PVC coupling is to first clean and dry the pipe ends, apply PVC primer and cement to the ends and inside the coupling, then quickly push the pipe ends into the coupling and hold them in place for a few seconds to allow the cement to bond.
