    In geometry, concentricity is the quality of imbedded


    circles having the same center. In industry, concentricity
    is a measure of constancy of tube or pipe wall thickness.
    Such constancy is desirable for different reasons in

    different situations. Evenness of wall thickness is
    desirable for integrity if pressure will be applied to the tubing. If the tubing needs to be
    spun, variation in wall thickness can cause shimmy.

    The formula for calculating concentricity is simple. The difficult part is making sure the
    survey of the varying thickness of the piping wall is comprehensive enough.

    Find the thickest and thinnest points of wall tubing thickness.


    For example, in the diagram, the dotted lines mark the cross
    sections of thinnest and thickest wall. If need be, these points can
    done by trial and error, using a micrometer. If you know how to use one, try doing
    so with an optical comparator.

    Use the following formula in the diagram to calculate the


    concentricity: C = Wmin/Wmax --- 100%.
    How to Measure a Micron

    Wmin is the minimum width. Wmax is the maximum width. C is a


    percent. 100% means the tubing is fully concentric.

    Compare C from Step 3 with any quality control tolerance that was predetermined. Do this to decide if the level of concentricity is sufficient.

    How to Measure a Gauge of


    Metal Tubing

    For example, suppose that the tolerance is 70%. Concentricity is not allowed to go
    below this tolerance. Suppose that Wmin is 0.25 mm and Wmax is 0.30 mm. Then
    C = 83%, the tolerance is met, and the tube is deemed sufficiently concentric.
