Prakash,

Have you looked at a piping catalogue lately? If you have not done it yet, now is a good time.
If you did, you will find several column designation : nominal pipe size, outside diameter, inside
diameter & wall thickness. Now amongst these numbers, what would be the easiest for you to remember?
That's the answer to your question!
