Summary
Enter leg size, thickness, and length to get the weight of an equal-leg iron or steel angle bar section.
How it works
- Enter the leg size (the width of each equal leg) in millimeters.
- Enter the thickness of the angle bar wall in millimeters.
- Enter the total length of the angle bar in meters.
- Select the material density (steel default is 7850 kg/m³; cast iron is 7200 kg/m³).
- The calculator instantly computes the cross-sectional area and multiplies by length and density.
- Results are shown in kilograms and pounds with the linear mass (kg/m) for reference.
Use cases
- Estimating material weight for structural steel fabrication projects.
- Calculating shipping weight of angle bar consignments.
- Checking structural load contributions from angle section members.
- Comparing material cost between different angle bar sizes.
- Verifying manufacturer weight tables for procurement purposes.
- Quick on-site weight estimation without lookup tables.
