anyone know what 1" square 16g tube weighs roughly, for any given length? Google is not cooperating...

Cheers!

JoelP - 21/8/09 at 08:32 PM

from specific mass? Bah...!


JoelP - 21/8/09 at 08:33 PM

1.2kgs per metre?

25mm x 25mm x 1.5mm wall

=

(.025 x .0015 x 2)+(.022 x .0015 x 2) x 1 x 7752

=

.000075 + .000066 x 1 x 7752

=

.000141 x 1 x 7752

= 1.093032 kg/m

not allowing for the rads on the corners.

I think, possibly, maybe, ish.

try me

page 55. it's only from 25x25x2mm upwards but it's a useful ballpark reference for other bits
