This is not some of my finest work, but it is informative.

You can see the volume of material in each tube size. The link is below: These figures are for a 6" piece (15.24cm) of tubing giving you the volume of that tubing.

A Couple Interesting Factoids :

1030 has more volume than 1632, and 3050 is between 1842 and 1745 volume wise.

Tube Volume Info

OD - mm
ID - mm
Length - 15.24 cm (6")

Volume in cm

1030-95.76cm
1632-91.93cm
1636-124.48cm
2040-143.63cm
1842-172.36cm
1745-207.79cm
2050-251.36cm
3050-191.5cm
3060-323.18cm

Thanks for posting this wll!

It's interesting to see the relative amount of latex in tubes of different sizes.

The 1030s are a surprise. Almost solid, I guess!

KawKan,

You can see the ID, although it is small. I personally would like to see in a real life situation the difference in speed between 1030 and 1632 ?

The 3050 I always thought it was powerful but had less pull then 1842 but I never really measured the weight, 3050 is a very good tube for a wide range of projectiles. I think the thin wall size helps in its speed while the circumference gives this tube more elastic mass .. In a looped config they are awesome with 100+gr projectiles.

cool, thanks for the info.

wll, I think your volumes are off a couple decimal places.

Seems you entered 30 mm & 10 mm instead of 3 mm & 1mm.

I only bring it up because I was trying to compare some of my tubes to the list.

I use 2055, so I ran the numbers for them:

2055 - 3.14 cm3

I also wanted to compare that to some spearfishing tubes I had in imperial sizes, 3/16 ID - 3/32 Thick - 9/32 OD

9/32 OD 3/16 ID - 3.40 cm3

Thanks for the info.

yes, i think your right, but all is proportional so it works out so see where the volume stands.
