O.D. = Pipe Outside Diameter (in) Copyright Notice


SF = Safety factor (General Calculations 1.5 10, Use 1 For Bursting Pressure)

S = Material Strength (psi) Ultimate Tensile strength or Yield strength can be used.
Ultimate should be used to determine the bursting pressure. Yield can be used for
estimating pressures at which permanent deformation begins.

Pipe Working Pressure Calculation
