This tool calculates the weight of a fixed thickness U profile (e.g. a U bent from sheet metal). You can calculate for steel, stainless steel (304, 316), aluminum, copper, brass, bronze, cast iron and other metals, and enter the density yourself for the material that is not listed.
Formula
A = t × (h + 2b − 2t)
h: web height, b: flange width, t: thickness. The body and wing thicknesses of rolled UPN/UPE profiles are different; our separate standard profile tool is prepared for these.
Example
The meter weight of a 100 × 50 × 3 mm steel U profile is approximately 4.57 kg/m.
