Information

The theoretical weight of sheet metal provides a benchmark for evaluating hot-rolled sheet and coil products with a minimum width of 500 mm. This reference value aids in determining the overall mass of metal components accurately.

Sheet Metal Weight Calculation - Online Calculator

Utilize our online sheet metal weight calculator to precisely determine the weight of a steel sheet based on its thickness—whether measured per linear meter or per square meter. This digital metal mass evaluator computes the theoretical weight in line with standardized reference data. To obtain the product’s mass, please follow these steps:

  • Choose your preferred calculation method.
  • Input the required dimensions into the calculator.
  • Click "Calculate" to display your results.

This tool further allows you to compute both the weight of 1 m2 of sheet metal and the weight per linear meter of the metal product.

Alternative Method for Mass Calculation

For determining the weight per linear meter of sheet metal, we use the geometric formula ρat = ρ × a × s (kg/m).

Formula Components:

  • ρat – theoretical mass per linear meter;
  • ρ – density of the metal (for carbon steel, ρ = 7850 kg/m3);
  • s – metal thickness (mm);
  • a – width of the sheet metal (mm).

The calculated data aligns with the nominal weight within acceptable tolerances. This formula simplifies the computation of theoretical mass for sheets with non-standard dimensions. Production allowances for sheet and coil products are accepted per standard industry requirements.

Our online metal weight calculator is designed to be highly valuable for sales professionals, purchasing managers, cost estimators, and construction project supervisors—anyone who needs to accurately determine the mass of metal structures. By entering the dimensions, type, and quantity of rolled products, you receive immediate and precise results. Depending on the quantity and geometric specifications, this online metal mass calculator processes essential values efficiently.

How Does Sheet Metal Differ from Coil Metal?

Steel sheet metal is manufactured in a rectangular format with fixed dimensions. Industry standards specify sheet sizes—such as 1250 mm x 2500 mm and 1500 mm x 6000 mm. When calculating the weight of a metal sheet, thickness, width, and overall dimensions are all considered. The sheet metal weight calculator streamlines mass estimation based on these critical parameters.

In contrast, coil metal is produced as a continuous steel strip with defined length, thickness, and width. Dimensional tolerances may be applied as per customer specifications. The weight calculation for coil metal is performed by multiplying the mass per linear meter by the total strip length, using reference tables alongside our online calculator.

For instance, to calculate the weight of one square meter of sheet metal at a thickness of 1 mm, our mass calculator provides an exact determination of both per linear meter and per square meter weights, thereby streamlining your material evaluation process. The online sheet metal weight calculator delivers accurate data quickly and efficiently based on the product’s dimensions and specifications.
