Example weight of steel plate the weight of a 1 inch thick 36 3 ft x 96 8 ft steel plate with weight 40 8 lb ft 2 from table above can be calculated as.
Specific gravity of mild steel sheet.
Sus201 sus202 sus301 sus301l sus301j1 sus302 sus302b sus303 sus303se sus304 sus304l sus304n1 sus304n2 sus304ln sus304j1 sus304j2 sus305 sus321 susxm7.
The specific gravity can tell us based on its value if the object will sink or float in our reference substance.
The density of steel is in the range of 7 75 and 8 05 g cm 3 7750 and 8050 kg m 3 or 0 280 and 0 291 lb in 3 the theoretical density of mild steel low carbon steel is about 7 87 g cm 3 0 284 lb in 3.
Metal or alloy substance.
The specific gravity sg is a dimensionless unit defined as the ratio of density of the material to the density of water at a specified temperature.
Electrical steel lamination steel silicon electrical steel silicon steel relay steel transformer steel is an iron alloy tailored to produce specific magnetic properties.
For example beryllium has a specific gravity sg of 1 84 1840 kg m.
As specific gravity is just a comparison it can be applied across any units.
The density of pure water is also 62 4 lbs ft pounds per cubic foot and if we know that a sample of aluminum has a sg of 2 5 then we can calculate that its density is 2 5 x 62 4 156 lbs ft.
Specific gravity of an object is the ratio of density of that object to that of a reference substance.
Aluminum bronze 3 10 al 7700 8700.
Specific gravities sg for common solids and metals can be found in the table below.
Generally the reference subs.

Steel sheets and plates are typical stocked in 36 48 and 60 widths and 96 120 and 144 lengths.
Density of carbon steels alloy steels tool steels and stainless steels are shown below in g cm 3 kg m 3 and lb in 3.
Small hysteresis area resulting in low power loss per cycle low core loss and high permeability.
If you want to calculate various steel weight correctly you must know the steel density first such as steel density iron density aluminum density brass density etc then to calculate the weight of ms plate gi sheet mild steel stainless steel ms angle ms pipe etc in kg m3 according to the weight calculation formula.
The typical density of common metals can be found listed in the table below.
Electrical steel is usually manufactured in cold rolled strips less than 2 mm thick.
