SS sheet weight calculator and weight chart in kg.
SS sheet weight (kg) = length (m) × width (m) × thickness (mm) × 7.93 for SS 304. A 1.5 mm SS 304 sheet weighs 11.9 kg/m², so a nominal 8 × 4 sheet sized 1220 × 2440 mm weighs 35.4 kg. Use 7.98 for SS 316 and 7.80 for SS 202.

Frequently asked questions
What is the formula for SS sheet weight?
Weight (kg) = length (m) × width (m) × thickness (mm) × density. Use 7.93 for SS 304/304L, 7.98 for SS 316/316L, 7.80 for SS 202 and 7.75 for SS 410/430.
What is the weight of an 8 × 4 SS sheet?
For SS 304, a nominal 8 × 4 sheet sized 1220 × 2440 mm weighs about 23.6 kg at 1 mm, 35.4 kg at 1.5 mm and 47.2 kg at 2 mm.
What is 16 gauge SS sheet thickness and weight?
16 SWG is 1.626 mm. In SS 304 that is about 12.9 kg/m², or 38.4 kg for a 1220 × 2440 mm sheet.
What does a 2 mm SS 316 sheet weigh?
At an estimating density of 7.98 g/cm³, 2 mm SS 316 sheet weighs 15.96 kg/m² or 47.51 kg for 1220 × 2440 mm. A 3 mm sheet of that size weighs 71.26 kg. Confirm actual dimensions and thickness tolerance for purchasing.
Is an 8 by 4 sheet exactly 1220 by 2440 mm?
No. Exactly 4 by 8 feet is 1219.2 by 2438.4 mm. The chart uses the common nominal metric size 1220 by 2440 mm. Enter the actual ordered dimensions when calculating a quotation weight.
What are the standard SS sheet sizes in India?
The common sizes are 1220 × 2440 mm (8 × 4 ft), 1250 × 2500 mm, 1250 × 3000 mm (10 × 4 ft), 1500 × 3000 mm (10 × 5 ft) and 1500 × 6000 mm for thicker plate. Cold rolled sheet is usually 0.3 to 6 mm thick; hot rolled plate runs from about 3 mm to 100 mm and more. Coils can be slit and cut to any length.
What thickness does SS 304 sheet come in?
Common cold rolled thicknesses are 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.2, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 and 6.0 mm; hot rolled plate continues at 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 25, 32, 40 and 50 mm and up. Specify thickness in mm, not gauge, on the purchase order.
Does SS 316 weigh more than SS 304?
Slightly. SS 316 is about 7.98 g/cm³ against 7.93 for SS 304, so it is roughly 0.6% heavier for the same size.
