mirage>>>What do you mean by black pipe? Like for natural gas plumbing in buildings? And if so what the hell does that weigh? >>>That iron pipe must weigh a ton! >>>


Nah. 1-1/2" diameter gas pipe is less than 3-lbs per foot. Throw in a few pounds worth of elbows & unions and it's still not much. I suppose if you thought your flathead might sound and breathe better with 4" thickwall sewer pipe, that might get you up a quarter ton or so. 8^)
