What does DN 63 mean?

Pipe is made of a wide variety of materials - like galvanized steel, black steel, copper, cast iron, concrete, and various plastics such as ABS, PVC, CPVC, polyethylene, polybutylene and more.Pipes are identified by "nominal" or "trade" names that are loosely related to the actual dimensions. For instance, a 2-inch galvanized steel pipe has an inside diameter of about 2 1/8 inches and an outside diameter of about 2 5/8 inches.In plumbing pipe size is referred to as nominal pipe size - NPS, or "Nominal Pipe Size". The metric equivalent is called DN or "diametre nominel". The metric designations conform to International Standards Organization (ISO) usage and apply to all plumbing, natural gas, heating oil, and miscellaneous piping used in buildings. The use of NPS does not conform to American Standard pipe designations where the term NPS means "National Pipe Thread Straight".


What are the types of Pipe fittings?

How do you calculate 45 degree steel elbow weight-- need a formula?

The easiest way is to find the centerline length and multiply that by the linear weight of the pipe size being used. Alternatively, this formula should give the weight of an elbow in pounds: w=0.071*pi^2*R*(ro^2-ri^2) Where: w= weight of elbow (lb) R=curve radius of elbow (in) ro=outside radius of pipe (in) ri=inside radius of pipe (in)
