1 inch pipe (DN 25): outside diameter, wall thickness and weight by schedule

A 1 inch pipe (DN 25) has a 33.4 mm (1.315 in) outside diameter in every schedule: what changes is the wall, and with it the inside diameter and the weight. Designations that give the same wall share a row.

Schedule Wall ID Weight
Sch 5 / 5S 1.65 mm (0.065 in) 30.10 mm (1.185 in) 1.29 kg/m (0.87 lb/ft)
Sch 10 / 10S 2.77 mm (0.109 in) 27.86 mm (1.097 in) 2.09 kg/m (1.41 lb/ft)

Sch 40 / STD / 40S 3.38 mm (0.133 in) 26.64 mm (1.049 in) 2.50 kg/m (1.68 lb/ft)
Sch 80 / XS / 80S 4.55 mm (0.179 in) 24.30 mm (0.957 in) 3.24 kg/m (2.17 lb/ft)
Sch 160 6.35 mm (0.250 in) 20.70 mm (0.815 in) 4.24 kg/m (2.85 lb/ft)

Plain-end weight of carbon steel pipe, by the standard's own formula: 10.69 × (D − t) × t in lb/ft, with D and t in inches (0.0246615 × (D − t) × t in kg/m, in mm). Austenitic stainless weighs about 2% more.

Questions

What is the outside diameter of 1 inch pipe?
33.4 mm (1.315 in), in any schedule: it is the DN 25 pipe of ASME B36.10M. The wall changes with the schedule, and the inside diameter with it.
What is the wall thickness of 1 inch schedule 40 pipe?
3.38 mm (0.133 in), with an inside diameter of 26.64 mm (1.049 in); carbon steel pipe weighs 2.50 kg/m (1.68 lb/ft).
What is the difference between schedule 40 and 80 in 1 inch pipe?
The wall: 3.38 mm (0.133 in) in schedule 40 and 4.55 mm (0.179 in) in 80. The outside diameter is the same, so schedule 80 has the smaller bore -- 24.30 mm (0.957 in) against 26.64 mm (1.049 in) -- and weighs 3.24 kg/m (2.17 lb/ft) against 2.50 kg/m (1.68 lb/ft).
