Metal weight calculator

The metal weight calculator computes the weight of plate, bar, and common profiles from dimensions and material density — steel at about 0.284 lb/in³, aluminum at about 0.098 lb/in³, and other alloys. Weight equals volume times density, and the tool handles multiple pieces and unit conversion for quick shipping and pricing estimates.
