    Wire weight

    To calculate the weight of the wire, you can use a calculator where formulas and correct parameters are entered. But you can also perform all necessary operations yourself, although this will require a bit of time and patience.



    Calculation of wire mass

    Wire diameter, mm Weight of 1 m of wire, kg Length of wire in a coil/coil, m Weight of wire in a coil/coil, kg

    Formula for calculating the weight of the wire

    Formula for calculating the weight of the wire
    Where:
    m – calculated weight of 1 meter;
    P – constant (3,14);
    D – diameter;
    G – material density, the following parameters are taken:
    Steel – 7850;
    Copper – 8890;
    Aluminum – 2703.
    The material density can be found in standards.

    Also for copper and aluminum alloys you can use the following formula:

    Formula for calculating the weight of wire for aluminum alloys
    Where:
    M – weight of 1m copper and aluminum;
    MS – weight of 1m steel product;
    Q – density (aluminum – 2703, copper - 8890),
    QWith – steel density (7850).
