EMT Conduit Weight

The Weight of Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT) calculator estimates the total weight of Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT Conduit) based on the size of the conduit (S) and the length (L).

INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:

• (S) Size of Conduit (inches)
• (L) Length of Conduit

EMT Conduit Weight(w): The calculator returns the estimated weight in pounds.  However this can be automatically converted to compatible units via the pull-down menu.

The Math / Science

EMT stands for Electrical Metallic Tubing (aka thin-wall tubing).  EMT is often used as a lower cost solution to galvanized rigid conduit (GRC).  EMT is not threaded but can be used with threaded fittings via the use of clamps.  EMT is typically made of steel.

The relationship between length of conduit, size of EMT and the weight comes from industry standard numbers.  The table above is the basis of this calculator and it shows the mass / weight value of the EMT per hundred feet length.
