In the imperial system of measurement, Pipe is referred to by its Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) in millimeters.
True
False
Inner Diameter of a pipe = Outer Diameter + 2 Wall Thickness
True
False
Pipe may be chosen with a thicker wall then necessary to counteract corrosion and erosion by the conveyed fluid. This extra thickness to counteract corrosion is called Mill Allowance.
True
False
