Steel plate weight per m² and per plate

Standard: Calculated at 7.85 kg/dm³ (nominal thickness)

Theoretical mass of carbon and low-alloy steel plate from the nominal thickness at 7,850 kg/m³: 7.85 kg per m² for each millimetre of thickness. Plate is often invoiced on theoretical mass, so the figure matters commercially as well as for lifting and transport.

Actual mass is usually higher than theoretical, because plate tolerances are biased to the plus side (EN 10029 class A allows −0.4 to +0.8 mm at 3–5 mm). For a mass on the actual thickness, or another size, use the steel weight calculator.

Notes

Stainless steel plate is about 1–2 % heavier (7.93–8.0 kg/dm³); aluminium plate is about one third of the mass.
