Schedule 80S Pipe Dimensions

ASME B36.19M stainless steel pipe in 80S, NPS 1/8 through NPS 24 — with the B36.10M Schedule 80 wall alongside, because the two are routinely swapped by mistake.

Weight is plain-end austenitic stainless, taken as 1.5% heavier than the carbon steel formula w = 10.69 × t × (OD − t) lb/ft.

80S is not the same as Schedule 80 everywhere. The two agree in 16 of the 23 sizes published, and disagree at NPS 10 (0.500 in against 0.594 in), NPS 12 (0.500 in against 0.688 in), NPS 14 (0.500 in against 0.750 in), NPS 16 (0.500 in against 0.844 in), NPS 18 (0.500 in against 0.938 in), NPS 20 (0.500 in against 1.031 in) and NPS 24 (0.500 in against 1.219 in). Substituting one for the other in those sizes puts the wrong wall in the line.

Common questions

Is 80S the same as Schedule 80?

Not in every size. They agree in 16 sizes and disagree at NPS 10, NPS 12, NPS 14, NPS 16, NPS 18, NPS 20 and NPS 24. The S suffix always signals stainless pipe to ASME B36.19M, which also stops at NPS 24 in this schedule where B36.10M continues.

What sizes does 80S come in?

NPS 1/8 through NPS 24 — 23 sizes. B36.19 is a shorter standard than B36.10: B36.19 publishes 40S and 80S through NPS 24, except NPS 22, and 5S and 10S through NPS 30. Beyond that, stainless pipe is ordered to a B36.10 schedule.

Why is 80S pipe used?

Stainless costs several times what carbon steel does, so stainless lines are run as thin as the pressure allows. The S-schedules exist to give that thin end of the range a designation — 10S in particular is the workhorse wall for low-pressure stainless process and sanitary piping.
