Jindal Pipe Weight Chart — Star, Hissar and Stainless Steel Sizes

Jindal pipe ka weight — whether you are ordering Jindal Star ERW, Jindal Hissar, or Jindal Stainless — is calculated from the same basic formula: Weight (kg/m) = (OD − WT) × WT × 0.02466. This page gives you the ready-reckoner tables for all three product lines so you can read off the weight directly without a calculator.

Understanding the Jindal Pipe Product Lines

Jindal Saw Ltd. produces two distinct MS ERW pipe ranges that fabricators in India encounter regularly. The Jindal Star range covers 15 NB to 150 NB and beyond, conforming to IS:1239 (Part 1):2004 in three wall-thickness classes. The Jindal Hissar plant produces a similar IS:1239 range but with slightly different available sizes. The Jindal Stainless division manufactures SS 304 and SS 316 pipes to ASTM A312 and IS:6913 standards, with density values distinct from MS.

On a jobsite, the two MS ranges are nearly interchangeable for most structural applications — the key difference is the supplying plant and regional availability. From a weight perspective, any pipe produced to the same IS:1239 class will have the same nominal weight per metre regardless of which Jindal plant produced it.

The Pipe Weight Formula and Variables

Formula: Weight (kg/m) = (OD − WT) × WT × 0.02466

OD

Outside diameter of the pipe, in millimetres

WT

Wall thickness of the pipe, in millimetres

0.02466

SI constant derived from π × ρ_steel / 4000, using steel density 7850 kg/m³ per IS:1239

This constant is fixed for all MS and GI pipe calculations. For stainless steel, a different constant applies based on the alloy density — covered in the stainless table below.

Jindal Star MS ERW Pipe Weight Chart (IS:1239)

Wall thickness and weight as per IS:1239 (Part 1):2004. Tolerance on weight: ±7.5% per individual length, ±5% per consignment. Tolerance on wall thickness per IS:1852.

Jindal Hissar ERW Pipe Weight Chart (IS:1239)

Medium class wall thickness as per IS:1239 (Part 1):2004. The Hissar plant primarily supplies medium-class pipe; confirm class with your distributor at time of order.

Jindal Stainless Pipe Weight Chart (SS 304 and SS 316)

SS 304 density 8000 kg/m³; SS 316 density 8027 kg/m³ per IS:6913:1993. Weight calculated using formula: (OD − WT) × WT × π × ρ / 1,000,000. Values are nominal; actual weight subject to manufacturing tolerance.

Worked Example — Ordering 50 NB Jindal Star Medium Class Pipe

A site engineer at a pharmaceutical plant in Pune needs to order MS pipe for a utility water line. The specification calls for 50 NB Medium Class pipe conforming to IS:1239. He wants to confirm the truck load before placing the order.

Step 1 — Read the weight from the chart:
50 NB Medium Class: OD = 60.3 mm, WT = 3.65 mm
Weight = (60.3 − 3.65) × 3.65 × 0.02466 = 56.65 × 3.65 × 0.02466 = 5.10 kg/m

Step 2 — Calculate total weight for the order:
Quantity: 40 lengths × 6 m each = 240 m total
Total weight = 240 × 5.10 = 1,224 kg

Step 3 — Confirm truck load:
At 1,224 kg, the order fits comfortably within a 1.5-tonne mini-truck (Tata Ace or similar). No second trip required. The engineer also checks the ±7.5% weight tolerance per IS:1239 — worst case the actual delivery weighs up to 1,313 kg, still within the vehicle's rated capacity.

What Is the Difference Between Jindal Star and Hissar Pipe?

Both Jindal Star and Jindal Hissar are ERW (Electric Resistance Welded) MS pipes conforming to IS:1239. The difference is the manufacturing plant — Star is produced at the Nashik facility and Hissar at the Hissar (Haryana) plant. Both meet the same IS standard and the weight per metre is identical for the same NB size and class. Regional availability is the main practical distinction: contractors in North India typically receive Hissar stock, while those in Maharashtra and the South receive Star stock. Always confirm the plant code with your distributor if mill test certificates (MTCs) matter for your project.

Pipe Ka Weight Chart — Tips for Procurement

When verifying a Jindal pipe delivery against this pipe ka weight chart, weigh a random sample of three to five lengths and calculate the average kg/m. If the average falls outside ±5% of the nominal value for the class, raise a non-conformance report with the supplier and request the mill test certificate. IS:1239 gives the supplier a ±7.5% tolerance per individual piece but holds the consignment average to ±5%.

For stainless pipe, the tolerance is tighter — IS:6913 specifies ±10% on wall thickness, which translates to a smaller weight variation than MS pipe because the density is higher and the wall thickness changes drive weight change non-linearly.
