How to use the Steel Weight calculator
- Enter the Volume (m³) and Density (kg/m³). Steel is about 7,850 kg/m³.
- Press Calculate.
Formula and method
Weight = Volume × Density
Worked example
0.01 m³ of steel weighs 0.01 × 7,850 = 78.5 kg.
Tips
- Calculate the volume first from the dimensions of the bar, plate or pipe.
- Stainless steel is slightly denser, about 8,000 kg/m³.
