The need to calculate the weight of brass wire arises when determining the loads on the surface or adjacent elements with which the wire product is in contact (such as welding mesh). Such a calculation is also carried out to compare the load carrying capacity of the brass fastener with the weight of the parts that are fastened or held by it.

Calculation of weight

With the known radius and length h of the material, first determine the actual volume V of the product. The formula V = 3,14r2 h is used for this purpose. Then it is necessary to specify the brass grade (it is stamped on the accompanying tag to the coil). The point is that brass density γ varies considerably depending on the percentage of components that make up the alloy. Below is the density of the most commonly used types of the alloys under consideration:

  • All foundry brasses - 8500 kg/m3;
  • LZh60-1-1, LK80-3 - 8200 kg/m3;
  • L59, L60, LZhS58-1-1, LMz58-2 - 8400 kg/m3;
  • LZhMc59-1-1, LO60-1, LO62-1, LS63-3, LS64-2 - 8500 kg/m3;
  • L68, LA77-2, LO70-1 - 8600 kg/m3;
  • L85 - 8750 kg/m3;
  • L90 - 8780 kg/m3.

The weight of the wire section M is determined by the dependence M = γV. If the number of wire coils is n pieces, then the total weight of Mc products will be Мc = Мn. The supplier Evek GmbH offers to buy brass rolled products of domestic and foreign production at an affordable price in a wide range. We provide delivery of products anywhere in the continent. The price is optimal.

Using the tabular method of calculation

For an approximate determination of the weight of a linear meter of wire section, you can use the table:

Wire diameter, mm Weight of one running meter, kg for diameter, mm
3 5 8 10 12 15
0,06 0.17 0,43 0,67 0,96 1,50

Intermediate values are obtained by interpolating related tabular data.
