Round Bar Weight Calculator

Weight = π/4 × D² × L × density. The classic d²/162 formula for steel bars.

Steel Round Bar Weight (kg/m)

Diameter | kg/m
10 mm | 0.617
16 mm | 1.58
20 mm | 2.47
25 mm | 3.85
50 mm | 15.4
100 mm | 61.7

Formula

Weight (kg/m) = D²(mm) ÷ 162.28 for steel
General: π/4 × D² × ρ

Worked Example

Ø25 steel bar: 25² ÷ 162.28 = 3.85 kg/m.

FAQ

What is the d²/162 formula?

It is π/4 × 7850 × 10⁻⁶ simplified: steel round bar kg/m = D(mm)² ÷ 162.28.
