Formula

length × width × thickness × density

Result unit: kg

Weight = L × W × T × ρ. Aluminum density = 2700 kg/m³ (about 1/3 the weight of steel).

Introduction

Calculate the weight of aluminum sheets, plates, and flat parts. Aluminum density is 2700 kg/m³ — roughly one-third of steel, making it ideal for lightweight structures.

Calculation Example

A 1000mm × 500mm × 5mm aluminum sheet weighs 6.75 kg.

Inputs: length=1000, width=500, thickness=5, density=2700

Result: 6.75 kg

Engineering Applications

•Aerospace parts
•Automotive lightweighting
•Sheet metal fabrication
•Structural framing

Frequently Asked Questions

What is aluminum density?

Pure aluminum is 2700 kg/m³. Aluminum alloys range from 2640 to 2850 kg/m³ depending on alloying elements.

How much lighter is aluminum than steel?

Aluminum is about 65% lighter than carbon steel for the same volume (2700 vs 7850 kg/m³).
