The strength of a hollow pipe versus a hollow tube largely depends on their material, dimensions, and the specific forces they are subjected to. Generally, hollow pipes are designed for structural applications and may have thicker walls, making them stronger for certain loads. Hollow tubes, often used in applications like piping or lightweight structures, may be optimized for weight rather than strength. Ultimately, the specific design and application determine which is stronger.

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.

Why is hollow steel pipe stronger than solid steel?

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


How is a hollow cylinder stronger than a solid cylinder when both have the same mass and length?

if they are short or in tension they are the same, when they bend the hollow tube has a bigger second moment of area and so is stronger to any bending moment


Can you make hollow steel pipe stronger by filling it with sand or expandable foam that turn it hard?

yes you certainly can mate


Is cylinder the synonym for tube?

Not quite. While they are similar shapes, a cylinder is usually solid (like a peg or a tin can, before it is opened) while a tube is hollow (like a pipe or a straw).
