Calculate titanium weight in pounds from density, shape, and inch dimensions for sheets, bars, tubes, angles, T bars, and C channels.
Titanium Weight Formulas
The following formulas are used to calculate the weight of titanium in different shapes.
Titanium Flat Sheet Weight Formula = L * W * T * d
Titanium Round Bar Weight Formula = pi * D^2/4 * L * d
Titanium Square Hollow Tube Weight Formula = (Wo2 – Wi2) * L * d
Titanium Round Hollow Tube Weight Formula = pi * (R^2-r^2) * L * d
Titanium Square Angle Weight Formula = T * (W + H – T) * L * d
Titanium T-Bar Weight Formula = [W*T + (H – T)*T] * L * d
Titanium C Channel Weight Formula = (2*W*T1 + H*T2) * L * d
Variables used in these equations:
- L is the length
- W is the width (or leg/flange width, depending on shape)
- H is the overall T-bar height, angle leg height, or clear web height between C-channel flanges, depending on shape
- T is the thickness
- d is the density
- D is the diameter
- R is the outer radius
- r is the inner radius
- Wo is the outer width (side length) of a square tube
- Wi is the inner width (side length) of a square tube
- T1 is the channel flange thickness
- T2 is the channel web thickness
Enter all dimensions in inches (in). Density can be entered in lb/inยณ or kg/mยณ and is converted internally. Results show pounds and kilograms of mass. The default 0.163 lb/inยณ approximates commercially pure titanium; use the density for your alloy. These ideal uniform-section formulas omit fillets, welds, holes and manufacturing tolerances. For C channels, web height is the clear distance between flanges, excluding both flange thicknesses.
What is the density of titanium?
The density of commercially pure titanium at room temperature is about 0.163 lb/inยณ (โ 4510 kg/mยณ).
