Weight Calculation

How is the weight of polyethylene Angle calculated?

Angle weight (kg/m) = thickness × (height + width − thickness) × density / 1000. One metre of 40 × 40 × 4 mm polyethylene Angle weighs about 0.289 kg.

What is the density of polyethylene?

The density of polyethylene is taken as 0.95 g/cm³ (950 kg/m³).

polyethylene Angle weight table for standard sizes

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
20 × 20 × 30.105
30 × 30 × 30.162
40 × 40 × 40.289
50 × 50 × 50.451
60 × 60 × 60.650
80 × 80 × 81.155

How accurate is the calculated weight?

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