Weight per metre of length: 5.793 48 kg/m
Density used: 8470 kg/m3

Outside width = 80
Outside height = 40
Wall thickness = 3
Length = 1000
Number of pieces = 1
volume_mm3 = (80*40 - (80 - 2*3)*(40 - 2*3)) * 1000 = 684 000
Volume of one piece = 684 000 / 1000 = 684
Density used = 8470 = 8470
Weight of one rectangular tube = 684 000 * 8470 / 1e9 = 5.793 48
Total weight = 5.793 48 * 1 = 5.793 48
Weight per metre of length = 684 000 / 1000 * 1000 * 8470 / 1e9 = 5.793 48

Values are shown to six significant figures here; the arithmetic itself runs on exact fractions and is only rounded where a number is printed.

The formula

Volume = (outer area - inner area) x length, ignoring the corner radii
Weight = volume x density, with density = 8470 kg/m3
One cubic millimetre of a material at 1000 kg/m3 weighs exactly one milligram, so the millimetre-to-kilogram step is a shift of the decimal point rather than a rounded factor.

Nickel-chromium alloy for high-temperature furnace and heat-treat work.

Dimensions are nominal. Mill tolerances on thickness, and the corner radii on formed sections, both move the real weight by a percent or two.

Every field takes inches or feet as readily as millimetres: change the unit next to it and the conversion is done exactly before the arithmetic starts.

Frequently asked

What is the density of Inconel 600?

8470 kg/m3, which is 8.470 g/cm3. Nickel-chromium alloy for high-temperature furnace and heat-treat work.

How do you calculate the weight of a Inconel 600 rectangular tube?

Volume = (outer area - inner area) x length, ignoring the corner radii. Multiply the volume by the density of Inconel 600, 8470 kg/m3, taking care that both are in the same unit system.

Can I enter dimensions in inches?

Yes. Each dimension field has its own unit selector, and inch, foot, millimetre, centimetre and metre entries are all converted exactly before anything is multiplied.

Where the numbers come from

Densities are nominal room-temperature values for the grade named, drawn from the usual mill and handbook figures.
