Subject: Pipe vs square tubing for strength?


NC KS
I sam thinking about redoing the booms on my pickup sprayer due to welds upon welds. I noticed the Miller Nitro sprayers use a really simple to build boom of square tubing using the tubing on edge or diamond shaped. I was wondering if pipe would have the same strength as square tubing. I am thinking about 4" 1/4 wall square tubing or 3"-4" round oil field pipe. Which one would have more strength?

Also, is their an online sight giving the weight per foot of various steel products?

Thanks
