Flanges for NPS 24 pipe
Flange dimensions are set by NPS and pressure class, not by schedule, so every flange below fits this pipe. The exception is the weld neck: its bore is machined to the pipe it is welded to, which for Schedule 10 means 23.500 in (596.9 mm). Order the flange to the schedule or the bores will not line up at the weld.

Fittings for NPS 24 pipe
ASME B16.9 dimensions come from NPS alone, so these figures hold for Schedule 10 exactly as they do for every other schedule in the size. Only the wall thickness has to be ordered to match.

| 90° Short Radius Elbow | Centre-to-end A | 24.00609.60 mm |

Common questions
What is the inside diameter of NPS 24 schedule 10 pipe?
23.500 in (596.9 mm). The outside diameter is fixed at 24.000 in (609.6 mm) by ASME B36.10M, and the 0.250 in (6.3 mm) wall takes 0.500 in off it — 0.250 in from each side — leaving that bore.
How much does NPS 24 schedule 10 pipe weigh?
63.41 lb/ft (94.37 kg/m) empty, as plain-end carbon steel. Full of water it comes to 251.45 lb/ft (374.20 kg/m), because the bore holds 22.532 US gallons per foot. One short ton of this pipe is about 32 ft.
Does NPS 24 schedule 10 pipe use special flanges or fittings?
No. Flanges and buttweld fittings are dimensioned from NPS, so NPS 24 hardware fits this pipe in any schedule. The one thing that does follow the schedule is the bore of a weld neck flange or a fitting end prep, which has to be 23.500 in (596.9 mm) to match.
