Calculated result

47.1 kg / plate

47.1 kg total for 1 plate(s)

94.2 kg/m² · 6,000 cm³ per plate

Enter a rate per kg for material-cost planning

Enter target plate weight to reverse-solve thickness

Enter measured plate weight to audit effective density

  1. 1. Normalize dimensions: 1,000 × 500 × 12 mm.
  2. 2. Volume = 1,000 × 500 × 12 ÷ 1,000,000,000 = 0.006 m³.
  3. 3. Mass = 0.006 × 7,850 = 47.1 kg per plate.
  4. 4. Batch mass = 47.1 × 1 = 47.1 kg.

Nominal geometry × density estimate only. Actual alloy density, mill thickness/flatness tolerances, coatings, holes, cutouts and scale can change measured mass. Use certified material data and a calibrated scale for lifting, structural, contractual or safety-critical decisions.
