Aluminum Angle Bar Weight Calculator
Here’s a comprehensive table summarizing key information about aluminum angle bar weights:
| Aspect | Details |
|---|---|
| Density | Approximately 2.7 g/cm³ (0.098 lb/in³) for most aluminum alloys |
| Common Alloys | 6061, 6063, 5052, 5083 |
| Weight Formula | Weight = [(2A-T) × T + (1-π/4) × (R²int – 2R²out)] × L × ρ |
| Variables | A = flange width, T = thickness, Rint = inner radius, Rout = outer radius, L = length, ρ = density |
| Sizing | Available in equal and unequal leg lengths |
| Typical Thicknesses | 1.6mm (1/16″), 3.2mm (1/8″), 4.8mm (3/16″), 6.4mm (1/4″), 9.5mm (3/8″) |
| Common Sizes | 12mm to 150mm (1/2″ to 6″) leg lengths |
| Length | Usually available in 6m (20ft) lengths |
| Finish | Mill finish is standard, anodized available |
| Temper | T5, T6 common for 6000 series alloys |
| Applications | Structural support, framing, trim, fabrication |
| Advantages | Lightweight, corrosion-resistant, easy to fabricate |
| Calculation Tools | Online calculators available for quick weight estimation |
| Standards | ASTM B221, EN 755, GB/T 6892 |
| Tolerances | Vary by size and standard, typically ±0.4mm to ±0.8mm on leg length |
Remember that actual weights may vary slightly due to manufacturing tolerances and specific alloy compositions. Always consult manufacturer specifications for precise weights when critical.
