Weight Calculation

How is the weight of polyethylene Square Bar calculated?

Square bar weight (kg/m) = side² × density / 1000. One metre of 30 × 30 mm polyethylene Square Bar weighs about 0.855 kg.

What is the density of polyethylene?

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

Size (mm)Weight (kg/m)
10 × 100.095
20 × 200.380
30 × 300.855
40 × 401.520
50 × 502.375
