Frequently Asked Questions
What density does this calculator use for each metal?
Steel 490, aluminum 169, copper 559, brass 530, stainless steel 495, cast iron 450, and titanium 281, all in pounds per cubic foot. These are typical published figures for common alloys; exact density varies slightly by grade.
How is a round bar weight different from a rectangular bar?
A round bar volume uses the circular cross-section area, pi times radius squared, multiplied by length. A rectangular bar volume is simply length times width times thickness.
Which fields matter if I pick a round bar?
Length and diameter. Width and thickness are only used for the rectangular bar shape.
