Calculate volume from the part dimensions, then multiply by material density. Convert units carefully before comparing kg and lb.
A common estimate for carbon steel is 7.85 g/cm3, but alloy, stainless, aluminum, brass, and carbide all use different values.
Yes, but freight carriers may charge by dimensional weight if the package is large relative to actual weight.
Use this calculator to estimate stock weight, part weight, raw material usage, and shipping weight from dimensions and material density.
