The Weight or Mass of a Ring calculator computes the mass or weight of a ring (e.g. circular gasket) based on the thickness (t), outer diameter, inner diameter flattened ring and the mean density.
INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:
RING Mass or Weight (M): The calculator computes the mass of the ring in grams. However this can be automatically converted to any other mass and weight units (e.g. troy ounces) via the pull-down menu.
The equation for the mass of a ring is the volume of a ring times the mean density as follows:
`M = pi * t *[ (d_2/2)^2 - (d_1/2)^2] * mD`
