polyoxymethylene Hollow Section

Weight Calculation

How is the weight of polyoxymethylene Hollow Section calculated?

Hollow section weight is the outer cross-section minus the hollow core: (height × width − (height − 2 × wall) × (width − 2 × wall)) × length × density. One metre of 40 × 40 × 3 mm polyoxymethylene Hollow Section weighs about 0.626 kg.

What is the density of polyoxymethylene?

The density of polyoxymethylene is taken as 1.41 g/cm³ (1,410 kg/m³).

polyoxymethylene Hollow Section weight table for standard sizes

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
20 × 20 × 20.203
30 × 30 × 20.316
40 × 40 × 30.626
50 × 50 × 30.795
60 × 40 × 30.795
100 × 100 × 52.679

How accurate is the calculated weight?

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