How To Measure Pipe Length. In most industrial applications (such as water or general purpose) the oal is not critical, but in many hydraulic applications the oal can be critical due to space restrictions. The result is the overall length of the pipe you need.
A tape measure may not be flexible enough to measure this, so if you have access to another device that may be your best bet. The dimensional measurement of pipes is crucial for manufacturing to strict tolerances. How do you calculate tube length?
