ROUND TUBE WEIGHT CALCULATOR

Enter the outer diameter (D) and wall thickness (t) to get mass per metre (kg/m) and total tonnage for circular steel tubing. Ideal for sizing posts, braces, rails and handrail stock.

Inputs

mm

Typical range 20 – 300 mm

mm

Wall thickness in millimetres; usually 1.2 – 6 mm

m

Provide length in metres to see total tonnage

Formula

m = 0.02466 × t × (D − t) (kg/m)

D: outer diameter (mm), t: wall thickness (mm). Steel density is taken as 7850 kg/m³. Cross-section area equals π × t × (D − t).

Common sizes

Most frequently used round tube profiles in panel fence, mesh and decorative applications. Production tolerance within ±5%.

Size (mm)Mass (kg/m)
Ø32 × 1.51.128
Ø40 × 1.51.424
Ø48 × 1.51.720
Ø48 × 2.02.269
Ø60 × 2.02.861
Ø60 × 2.53.545
Ø76 × 2.03.650
Ø89 × 2.55.333
Ø102 × 3.07.324

Production tolerance

Per EN 10219-2, welded round hollow sections have a wall thickness tolerance of ±10% and an outer diameter tolerance of ±1%. A 3% scrap allowance is sufficient when sizing orders.

Coating options

Konak Tel Çit tube profiles can be hot-dip galvanised (40–80 µm), electro-galvanised or epoxy powder-coated. Hot-dip zinc coating adds negligible weight to profiles below 1 mm wall thickness.
