Butt Weld Cap Weight Calculator

Approximate weight of a butt welding cap can be calculated based on its its wall thickness, outside diameter and end to end length. Please note that actual weight of a cap from a particular manufacturer may vary depending on manufacturing process. Dimensional standards like ASME B16.9 do not provide weights of butt welding fittings.
