NPS 14 (DN 350) pipe — dimensions and weight
Outside diameter 355.6 mm (14 in), unchanged by schedule. This page lists all 16 tabulated schedules that fit on that diameter, with wall thickness, bore, mass per metre and internal volume.
Nominal pipe size is a label, not a dimension. The outside diameter of NPS 14 is 14 in (355.6 mm), and the bore depends entirely on the wall you choose — 347.7 mm on the thinnest tabulated wall down to 284.2 mm on the heaviest. The naming convention was fixed decades ago so that a fitting size could serve every wall thickness; it is not a measurement, and treating it as one is how a line gets sized off a table for the wrong pipe.

STD and XS are derived rather than tabulated: STD equals Sch 40 up to NPS 10 and is fixed at 0.375 in above it; XS equals Sch 80 up to NPS 8 and is fixed at 0.500 in above. Both appear here as separate rows because both are orderable designations.
How NPS 14 pipe weight is calculated
Sch 40 at this size, step by step
m = π/4 · (D² − d²) · 10⁻⁶ · ρ
D is outside diameter, d is bore (D − 2t), ρ is density in kg/m³, m is mass in kg per metre.
Worked through with the default dimensions:
D = 355.6 mm (14 in, fixed for every schedule)t = 11.10 mm (Sch 40)d = D − 2t = 355.6 − 22.20 = 333.4 mmA = π/4 × (355.6² − 333.4²) = 12,013.1 mm²m = 12,013.1 × 10⁻⁶ × 7,850 = 94.303 kg/m (63.368 lb/ft)
- D
- 355.6 mm — fixed by the standard for NPS 14
- t
- 11.10 mm for Schedule 40 at this size
- d
- 333.4 mm — the bore, and the dimension that governs flow
- ρ
- 7,850 kg/m³ for carbon steel
Internal volume and surface area
Mass is only one of the quantities that fall out of the same geometry. Two others decide real work on a line, and neither appears on a printed pipe chart:
| Wall vs range | Wallmm | Boremm | Masskg/m |
|---|---|---|---|
| 25 % | 0.47 | 354.7 | 4.10 |
| 50 % | 0.78 | 354.0 | 6.83 |
| 100 % | 1.41 | 352.8 | 12.28 |
| 200 % | 2.66 | 350.3 | 23.12 |
| 500 % | 6.41 | 342.8 | 55.17 |
| 1,000 % | 12.66 | 330.3 | 107.04 |
Sampled across the lightest to heaviest tabulated wall at this size. Mass rises roughly linearly with wall while the bore falls, which is the trade-off a schedule choice actually represents.
- Internal volume — 87.302 L/m in Sch 40 ( 23.063 US gal/ft). Multiply by the line length to size a hydrostatic test or a flush.
- External surface — 1.1172 m² per metre of pipe, which is what a coating or insulation quantity is priced against. It depends only on the outside diameter, so it is identical in every schedule at NPS 14.
- Water mass — 87.30 kg per metre of water at 1,000 kg/m³. This is the number that decides whether a support is adequate during a test, not in service.

Frequently asked questions
What is the outside diameter of NPS 14 pipe?
NPS 14 pipe has an outside diameter of 355.6 mm (14 in), and that diameter is fixed for every schedule at this size. Nominal pipe size is a label, not a dimension: NPS 14 does not measure 14 inches anywhere. The naming convention was chosen so that the outside diameter stays constant while the wall varies.
How much does NPS 14 pipe weigh?
In Schedule 40 it weighs 94.303 kg/m (63.368 lb/ft) with a 11.10 mm wall and a 333.4 mm bore. Not every schedule is tabulated for this size.
How many schedules are available for NPS 14?
This page lists 16 tabulated schedules, including the derived STD and XS walls. Note that STD and Sch 40 are the same thickness at the small sizes and different from NPS 12 upward, and XS and Sch 80 are the same up to NPS 8 and different above — the two confusions that most often produce a wrong order.
What is the internal diameter of NPS 14 pipe?
It depends entirely on the wall. The bore is the outside diameter minus twice the wall, so at NPS 14 it ranges from about 347.7 mm on the thinnest tabulated wall down to 347.7 mm on the heaviest. Flow capacity follows the bore, not the nominal size, which is why two pipes both sold as "NPS 14" can carry very different flows.
