`m = 8600 " kg/"m^3* "n" * L * W * W `

Enter a value for all fields

The Weight of Brass Square Bars calculator computes the average weight of brass bars based on the number and dimensions of the bars, and an average density of 8600 kg/m³ for brass bars.

INSTRUCTIONS: Enter the following:

(n) Number of bars
(L) Length of the bars
(W) Width of the bars
(T) Thickness of the bars
(ρ) Density of metal

Weight of Brass Square Bars (m): The function returns the weight in pounds. However this can be automatically converted to compatible units via the pull-down menu.

The Math / Science

Brass is a soft, ductile metal with an excellent machinability rating. Brass is often used for projects that require strength, corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity, and non-sparking characteristics. It is commonly used for decorative purposes because shiny gold-like color and easy polishing.

The formula for the weight of metal bars is as follows:

M = ρ • n • L • W • W

where:

M is the mass or weight of metal bars
ρ is the density of the metal
n is the number of bars
L is the length of the bars
W is the width or thickness of the bars
