Notes

  • Weight formula for 90° elbows: W = 9.685 × 10⁻⁶ × R × (D² − d²) kg, with R, D and d in mm; 45° and 180° elbows are half and twice the 90° weight.
  • Weights are approximate net weights per piece in kg for carbon steel, for estimation, freight and packing only. For austenitic stainless steel multiply by about 1.01–1.02.
  • Reference values for estimation and checking. Verify against the current edition of the standard and the purchase specification before design, purchase or fabrication.

Reference information compiled from the published standard for convenience. It does not replace the current edition of the governing standard, which takes precedence. Verify critical dimensions and properties before design, purchase or fabrication. Teshi Engineers & Sales Promoters (P) Ltd accepts no liability for errors or omissions.

FAQ

ASME B16.9 Butt Weld Elbow Weight Chart (kg): common questions

What is the weight of a 6 inch SCH 40 90° LR elbow?

About 10.7 kg in carbon steel (STD / SCH 40), from this chart.

How do I get the weight of a 45° or 180° elbow?

A 45° LR elbow weighs about half the 90° LR elbow of the same size and schedule; a 180° LR return weighs about twice as much.
