36 inch pipe dimensions: OD and wall thickness by schedule
Deskely Completions team Singapore
A 36 inch pipe, NPS 36 or DN 900, has an outside diameter of 914 mm (36.000 inches) in every schedule. From NPS 14 up the outside diameter in inches equals the nominal size. The schedule sets the wall thickness, and with it the inside diameter and the weight.
The table gives every schedule listed for NPS 36 in ASME B36.10M and B36.19M, in mm and inches.
- Outside diameter: 914 mm (36.000 in), the same for every schedule.
- Schedule 40: 19.05 mm wall, 875.9 mm inside diameter.
- XS: 12.70 mm wall, 888.6 mm inside diameter.
- Metric equivalent: DN 900.
