For a given outer diameter, the solid shaft is stronger, but it weighs more.
For a given weight, the hollow shaft is stronger because it has a bigger diameter.
due to less weight & less bending moment..............
the resultant bending moment for a solid pipe is much larger than for a hollow one because of their weight difference

∙ 13y agoMost of the strength of a circular section comes from the outer diameter fibers where area and inertia are the highest. So a tube is more efficient than a solid in terms of strength to weight ratio. However, if you ignore the weight benefit of a tube, the solid steel is stronger of the same diameter. If you need a certain weight, then you can make the tube stronger by increasing its diameter over a solid section of equal weight.

What is 40 mm NB pipe?
the inner diameter of the pipe Nominal bore (NB) is 40 mm
How do you determine invert from one manhole to another?
Given one invert, and the length of the pipe and the slope of the pipe, you multiply the the length of the pipe by it's slope (expressed as a decimal ratio) and add the result to the known invert.
You have an old lawn sprinkler system Is there a way to locate the underground pipe without digging?
If the pipe is metal try a metal detector. If plastic, get out your shovel.
What is bandwidh?
It's easiest to compare bandwidth to plumbing. Bandwidth is basically how big the pipe is, which means if you have high bandwidth, you can usually have a lot of information going through the "pipe". If you have low bandwidth, think of having a narrow pipe (like a straw) which restricts the amount of information that can pass through at one time.
What is stronger a round steel pipe or a steel hollow square bar?
By stronger, we need to define the loading conditions of the rod or pipe. The strength of a rod or pipe is typically evaluated with axial, transverse (bending), and torsion loads. With the same diameter and the same material, a solid rod is stronger than a hollow pipe. However, with the same weight and material, the hollow pipe is stronger than a solid rod. Because a hollow pipe is lighter than a solid rod at the same diameter, the hollow pipe would have a larger diameter in order to match weights with the solid rod and a larger diameter rod or pipe is stronger than a smaller diameter one.
Can you make hollow steel pipe stronger by filling it with sand or expandable foam that turn it hard?
yes you certainly can mate
What stronge ss pipe or black pipe?
Carbon Steel pipe is stronger than stainless steel pipe as there is more iron in the carbon steel. However, the application depends on the purpose the pipe is being installed. Stainless is of course capable of being sanitized and therefore can be used for food and pharmaceutical uses. Carbon Steel (black pipe) is stronger and cheaper but not sanitary.
How much does a solid steel pipe 6 inches round by 24 inches long weight?
"Solid Steel" would not be a pipe- it would be a rod. Weight of pipe will vary depending on the thickness of the wall of the pipe.
How can you get the weight for steel pipe?
assuming it's hollow. 10.68*ID*(OD-ID)
How is a seamless pipe made?
it is extruded through a mold. metal pipe is poured semi molten through a mold and forced out the other side. plastic is molten and forced thru a mold as well. there used to be a play-doh machine that would make a play-doh tube. then you could see how it's done.
Why does copper pipe pucker when bent?
Pipe is hollow, it needs to be solid when being bent. This can be with the aid of a solid mandrel, spring or even sand on the inside. With the pipe now a solid and if the bend radius isn't to sharp there should be no puckers when bending.
What are the advantages of steel tubing?
In some cases, depending on the size and weight of tubular steel pipe vs the same or similar size solid steel bar, the tubular steel might be stronger. The molecular structure of the solid steel have the molecules stacked close together, any shock or stress will compress the molecules closer together with no place to go unless the steel bends or breaks. A steel tube has the hollow area which allows shock or stress to be released, it will be less likely to bend or break. It also depends on what the application is tubular steel will definitely be lighter in weight, can be filled, run wiring or plastic tubing through it. Cost is cheaper.
What is 20 mm mild steel square hollow pipe 14 gauge standard weight?
14 gauge
Does Australia export steel pipe and tubes?
China is a large country to export steel pipe, if you want to buy steel pipe, you can import from China.
What is steel pipe made of?
Ad Muncher They are produced by two distinct methods which result in either a welded or seamless pipe. In both methods, raw steel is first cast into a more workable starting form. It is then made into a pipe by stretching the steel out into a seamless tube or forcing the edges together and sealing them with a weld. Ingot cast hollow cylindrical ingot, reheating by certain molds pulled into the pipe. china East Pipe Co., Ltd., is a steel tube suppliers eaststeelpipe.com/ established in 1979 in Weifang of china , it offers production , research , export , import of anti-corrosion steel pipe , it is one of the best manufacturer of large diameter anti-corrosion pipes and steel fire sprinkler pipe in China . East Pipe Industry Co., Ltd., has more than 30 years professional R&D experience of anti-corrosion steel pipe with annual production capacity of 500,000 tons .
Per meter unit weight of mild steel hollow pipes 2 mm thick?
No set answer to that, as steel pipes come in various diameters and wall thicknesses. If you want to be real accurate, they also come in various steel alloys, which do have some difference in density between them.
