Specifies the water weight of the pipe stock or tubing per unit length. However, this value is computed automatically in most cases and it is not always necessary for the specification writer to enter a value for the water weight per unit length. By definition, the water weight represents the sum of the dry weight (empty or shipping weight) and the weight of water within the fitting (pipe stock in this case).

The weight of water is computed automatically as the product of the density of water and the volumetric capacity per unit length, where the volumetric capacity per unit length of the pipe stock or tubing is computed as the product of the unit length and the cross-sectional area of the opening in the pipe stock, as represented by the difference between the outside diameter and the wall thickness, or as the product of the unit length and the cross-sectional area represented by the inside diameter.
