True, but the steel strength is usually lower with water pipe and conduit than mast. In most cases the difference in strength offsets the increased thickness.
The real issue is diameter. Most TV antennas are configured for 1 1/4" thick masts. Almost all pipe and conduit is 1.375" OD. Some U bolts fit easily, others don't.
