Method & Data Sources

Geometric volume × material density — same formulas and tables as the product catalog.

① Bolts / Screws / Anchors

③ Flanges / Gaskets (same values as catalog)

  • Weld neck & plate flanges (GB/T 9124.1-2019, EN 1092-1 Type 11 / Type 01): catalog table weights, non-CS scaled by density / 7.85
  • Non-metallic flat gaskets (GB/T 9126.1-2023): ring area × thickness × density, standard 2.0 mm
  • Spiral wound (GB/T 4622.1-2022): winding 3.3 + 304 inner ring 7.93 + CS outer ring 7.85 (g/cm³)

⑤ Accuracy & Deviation

  • Results rounded under the display-layer convention: 2 decimals below 1 g, 3 significant figures at 1 g and above, to mark the estimate nature
  • Geometric estimate tolerance: ±2% for flat washers (bore calibrated to the DIN 125 A standard hole diameter d1); ±5% for other standard parts; ±10% for carriage bolts, spring washers, self-drilling screws, anchors and spiral-wound gaskets; the high-strength assembly table-value ranges are standard theoretical mass table values. Surface finish added as % of base weight: zinc plated +0.5%, HDG +4.5% (GB/T 13912, 55–85µm), Dacromet +0.5%, black oxide +0.3% (catalog weights are base metal, coating excluded)
  • Imperial dimensions are ASME B18.2.1 proportional approximations, not lookup-table values
  • Use supplier-measured weights for settlement; freight figures are indicative only

⑥ High-strength structural assemblies (GB/T 1231 / 3632 / 32076.7)

  • Heavy hex assembly (GB/T 1231-2024, M12–M36) = table masses for bolt + nut + washer A + washer B, one of each (Tables 3–6 added directly); M39–M64 = geometric estimate from GB/T 32076.7-2015 dimensions (bolt + nut + 1 washer).
  • TC assembly (GB/T 3632-2008, M16–M30) = table masses for bolt + nut + washer, one of each (Tables 3–5 added directly).

FAQ

How close is the estimate to actual weight?

For standard parts the deviation is typically within ±5%, driven by tolerances, head geometry and coating. Sufficient for freight and quotation estimates; use measured values for trade settlement.

How much weight does coating add?

Hot-dip galvanizing typically adds 3–6% depending on coating thickness; electro zinc adds under 1%. This tool computes base-material weight.

Which density should I use for special alloys?

A2/A4 (304/316) fasteners are close to 7.9 g/cm³; duplex 2205 is about 7.8 g/cm³. For exotic alloys, choose "Custom density" and enter the actual value.

What basis is used for stud-bolt weight?

Flange-assembly convention: stud bolt + 2 hex nuts of the same size (ASME B16.5 joint basis — same as piping-world/projectmaterials per-100 tables with two nuts). Heavy hex nuts (e.g. A194 2H) run 10–15% heavier than regular nuts; for a heavy-hex basis please quote against the actual catalog nut spec or contact us.

How does carriage-bolt weight compare with hex?

At the same size and length the comparison depends on the rod-diameter basis: GB/T 12 specifies the unthreaded shank at approximately the major diameter, so on the catalog basis a carriage bolt runs a bit heavier than a hex bolt (e.g. M12×50: carriage ≈ 68 g vs hex ≈ 54 g); on a pitch-diameter basis they are close or slightly lighter. Always settle against the actual catalog SKU weight.
