The American National Standards Institute has standardized pipe wall thicknesses for different applications. These include Sch10, Sch20, Sch30, Sch40, Sch60, Sch80, Sch100, Sch120, Sch140, Sch160 ten levels. Schedule 40 in a pipe indicates tensile strength, 40 kg pressure. It is indicated through standard thickness of 4.0mm. Schedule 40 is the most common pipe thickness used in construction work. This standard offers an ideal balance between cost, strength, and ease of installation.
Schedule 80 or Schedule 160 piping may be required if the piping is exposed or if high temperature or high pressure water or gas needs to be transported. Schedule 10 is reserved for light applications.
