Weight Calculation

How is the weight of Iridium Angle calculated?

Angle weight (kg/m) = thickness × (height + width − thickness) × density / 1000. One metre of 40 × 40 × 4 mm Iridium Angle weighs about 6.870 kg.

What is the density of Iridium?

The density of Iridium is taken as 22.6 g/cm³ (22,600 kg/m³).

Iridium Angle weight table for standard sizes

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
20 × 20 × 32.509
30 × 30 × 33.865
40 × 40 × 46.870
50 × 50 × 510.74
60 × 60 × 615.46
80 × 80 × 827.48

How accurate is the calculated weight?

Values are theoretical; production tolerances and corner radii can make the actual weight differ by 2–5%.
