Ovality Calculated by:

Measuring Minimum OD:

Measuring Maximum OD:

ovality or noncircularity is the degree of deviation from perfect circularity of the cross section of the core

Reference: Acceptable ovality of a pipe should be determined by user, but as a guideline, 5% is a typical
acceptance criteria, and ASME defaults to 8%.

ASME B31.1-2001
104.2 Curved Segments of Pipe (B) For ferrous material, when the radius of a bend is 5 nominal pipe diameters
or greater, and the nominal wall thickness of the pipe is schedule 40 or thicker, the difference between maximum
and minimum diameters shall not exceed 8% of average measured outside diameter of the pipe before bending.

Hi-low – Misalignment: the incorrect arrangement or position of something in relation to something

else.
