Hpde Pipe Fitting Size Information

Iron Pipe Sizes (IPS)
Ductile Iron Pipe Sizes (DIPS)
& Copper Tube Sizes (CTS)

Thermoplastic pipe is made to three dimensioning systems based on controlled outside diameter. These pipes have a controlled outside-diameter equal to those of commercial IPS wrought steel pipe (steel pipe sizes) specified by ANSI B36.10, ductile-iron pipe sizes specified in AWWA C151, and small diameter copper-tube size (CTS) per ASTM B88.

Controlled outside diameter pipes are manufactured to the stated OD's below, but with the pipe walls sized in accordance with the Dimension-Ratio (DR) principle where-by all pipe sizes in the same DR series have the same ratio of OD to minimum wall thickness. All pipe sizes of the same material and constant DR series have the same working pressure rating and pipe stiffness.
