Use this free metal weight calculator to find out the exact weight of stainless steel products in seconds — regardless of shape or size. The calculator is suitable for sheets, pipes, rods, angles, strips, as well as square and round profiles made of AISI 304 and AISI 316 grade materials.
How to use the calculator?
- Select material — AISI 304 (density 7.90 g/cm³) or AISI 316 (8.00 g/cm³).
- Select shape — sheet, round or square tube, round or square bar, angle or strip.
- Enter dimensions in millimeters and quantity.
- Click 'Calculate weight' — you will receive the total weight in kg and weight in kg/m.
Density of AISI 304 and AISI 316
The weight of stainless steel depends on the alloy composition. The most commonly used grades:
- AISI 304 — density 7.90 g/cm³. Universal grade, resistant to most environments.
- AISI 316 — density 8.00 g/cm³. Increased molybdenum concentration; better resistance to chlorides.
Frequently asked questions
Why is it important to know the weight of the metal before purchasing?
Accurate weight helps calculate transportation costs, lifting requirements, and project budget. When purchasing in large quantities, even a small deviation can mean several additional hundred euros.
Is the calculator suitable for all stainless steel profiles?
Yes — the calculator covers the most popular profiles: sheets, round and square tubes, round and square bars, equal angle sections, and strips. If a non-standard shape is needed — please contact us directly.
Is the calculator's result accurate?
The calculator uses standard density values according to EN 10088. Actual weight may vary slightly due to manufacturing tolerances (±0.5–1%).
