Product Description

TYPE L AND TYPE M PIPES: THE DIFFERENCES

Wall thickness and pressure rating are crucial elements that separate Type L and Type M pipes. Two of the most common sizes on the market are three-quarter-inch and half-inch in thickness.

Type L three-quarter-inch pipes have a wall thickness of 0.045 inches, while Type M pipes have a thickness of 0.032 inches. On the other hand, a half-inch Type L pipe is 0.040 inches, and Type M is 0.028 inches.

Apart from that, what differentiates Type M and Type L pipes are their costs. Our market survey gathered that Type M pipes are cheaper than Type L.

If you are wondering why that is the case, it is because of the difference in the wall thickness of the pipes. Type L pipes have thicker walls, weigh more, and are priced higher.

Because the walls have to be thicker for Type L pipes, the amount of copper that goes into manufacturing them is relatively much higher. It is understandable why the production costs are higher for Type L pipes. Also, as the Type L pipe is heavier, transportation costs shoot up considerably.

That said, copper pipes are generally relatively easy to work with, as all pipes of similar sizes have the same exterior diameter. So, it is convenient to use them for plumbing connections. Remember that the inside diameter of the pipes will vary depending on the type you choose to work with.

For example, the inside diameter of a Type L pipe is 0.545 inches, while that of a Type M is 0.569 inches.

We can also supply Nickel Alloys, Tungsten Alloy, Molybdenum Alloy in any form.
