Epoxy Sheet Weight Calculation Formula

1. Epoxy Sheet Weight Calculation

Weight (kg) = Length (m) × Width (m) × Thickness (m) × Density (kg/m³)

If the dimensions are given in mm, you can use the following formula directly:

Weight (kg) = Length (mm) × Width (mm) × Thickness (mm) × Density (g/cm³) ÷ 1,000,000

For example:

FR4 Epoxy Fiberglass Sheet: 1220 × 2440 × 3 mm
Density: 2.0 g/cm³

1220 × 2440 × 3 × 2.0 ÷ 1,000,000 ≈ 17.86 kg/sheet

Therefore:

100 sheets × 17.86 kg ≈ 1,786 kg


2. Calculate the Number of Sheets from Total Weight

Number of Sheets = Total Weight ÷ Weight per Sheet

For example, if the total required weight is 1,786 kg:

1,786 ÷ 17.86 = 100 sheets


3. Calculate Weight Based on Thickness

For epoxy sheets with fixed length and width:

Weight per Sheet ≈ Length × Width × Thickness × Density

Therefore, for sheets with the same length, width, and density,the weight increases linearly with thickness.

For example, for a 1220 × 2440 mm epoxy sheet with a density of 2.0 g/cm³:

ThicknessTheoretical Weight per Sheet
1 mm5.95 kg
1.5 mm8.93 kg
2 mm11.90 kg
3 mm17.86 kg
5 mm29.77 kg
10 mm59.54 kg

4. Weight per Square Meter

This formula is particularly convenient for
epoxy sheet quotation and cost calculations:

Weight per Square Meter (kg/m²) = Thickness (mm) × Density (g/cm³)

For example, for FR4 with a density of 2.0 g/cm³:

ThicknessDensityTheoretical Weight
1 mm2.0 g/cm³2.00 kg/m²
1.5 mm2.0 g/cm³3.00 kg/m²
2 mm2.0 g/cm³4.00 kg/m²
3 mm2.0 g/cm³6.00 kg/m²
5 mm2.0 g/cm³10.00 kg/m²
10 mm2.0 g/cm³20.00 kg/m²

Then:

Weight per Sheet = Sheet Area × Weight per Square Meter

For example, for a 1220 × 2440 mm sheet:

Sheet Area:

1.22 × 2.44 = 2.9768 m²

For a 3 mm thick sheet:

2.9768 ×6.00 kg/m² = 17.86 kg/sheet


Important Note

The calculated values above are theoretical weights based on the specified density.Actual sheet weight may vary slightly due to manufacturing tolerances, resin content,thickness tolerances, and actual material density.
