How it was calculated

The weight is the section area multiplied by the material density:

kg/m = S² × 0.866 × 0.00785, where S is the size across flats in mm.

For Hexagon bar SW46, the section area is 18.33 cm², so 1 metre = 18.33 × 0.785 = 14.385 kg.

The real weight can differ by a few percent because of rolling tolerances. For other materials or lengths use the calculator.
