Does this mean that the pipe is 1" thick and 10" long, or what ? :) Thanks.

Answer 1

1" diameter of pipe and 10 feet long  

Answer 2

It means the interior diameter of the pipe is 1" and it's 10' long.

Answer 3

Yeah you got it, it means that the pipe is basically 10" long and has an nominal (i.e. inside) diameter of approximately 1".

The pipe you are looking at is descriped as a Sch40. Schedules (abbreviated to Sch) are used to describe standard wall thicknesses of pipe. In this case the outside diameter of the pipe will be approximately 1.315" since it is Schedule 40, the following website tabulated the different dimensions of various pipe schedules:    http://www.harvel.com/pipepvc-sch40-80-d...

Hope that helps.

Answer 4

1 X 10 means 1" inside diameter by 10' long.
