Elongated glass tubing

Does anyone have the formula on how to calculate the thickness of a glass tubing when stretched?

The density of the glass doesn't change when the shape changes. Therefore, if you know the weight and dimensions before elongation, you can weigh the tube after elongation, measure the inside and outside diameters and calculate the wall thickness.
