How to Calculate
To calculate stainless steel weight, measure your material's dimensions (length, width, thickness) and convert everything to inches. Calculate the volume by multiplying dimensions together, then multiply by the material density. **Formula: Weight = Length × Width × Thickness × Density**. For 304 and 316 stainless steel, use a density of 0.289 lb/in³ (or 500 lb/ft³, or 8,000 kg/m³). Different shapes like tubes and bars require their specific volume formulas.
Formula & Method
**Sheet/Plate:** Weight (lb) = Length (in) × Width (in) × Thickness (in) × 0.289
**Round Bar:** Weight (lb) = π × (Diameter/2)² × Length × 0.289
**Density:** 304/316 Stainless = 0.289 lb/in³ = 500 lb/ft³ = 8,000 kg/m³
