Weight of aluminum wire

Working for a long time at a metal receiving facility, a very relevant question is how much aluminum is in one meter of wire? Here we will give absolute comprehensive information that will help to scrap aluminum cable and theoretically calculate the amount of aluminum in the wire.

All aluminum cable is produced in accordance with GOST, so all calculations are standard for any cables and wires that you may encounter or encounter in your work. In order to accurately calculate the weight of aluminum in one meter, it is necessary to strip the core from the braid and measure the diameter of one core with a caliper or micrometer. The result can be viewed from the table and see the correspondence between the diameter, area and weight of 1 meter of aluminum cable in kilograms.

Calculation example: a core with a diameter of Ø1.6 mm has a cross section of 2 mm square. Table No. 1 indicates that this type of core has a weight of 0.005405 kg of aluminum per linear meter. If there are several cores of this diameter in the cable, then it is necessary to multiply the result obtained by the number of cores. So for example: one meter of 3x2 aluminum cable weighs 3*0.005405=0.016215 kg. Al

Aluminum cable 3X6: Diameter of one core Ø 2.774 mm, respectively, weight of 1 meter 0.01625 kg Al => Multiply the result obtained by the number of cores. 3 * 0.01625 \u003d 0.04875 kilograms in one meter of 3X6 cable

The tables contain quite comprehensive information that will be useful to people who want to sell an aluminum cable for scrap metal or buy an aluminum cable for subsequent delivery or processing it into non-ferrous metal scrap.

With extensive experience, the employees of our company will help you find the most suitable options and provide a high price for any type of ferrous and non-ferrous metal. If you have any questions about the delivery of scrap metal or the assessment of any type of non-ferrous and ferrous metal, you can contact us by mail or call the phone number listed in the contacts section.

Cable diameter 17.5 mm = Sectional area 240 mm

In 413 mm aluminum core 0.251 kg. aluminum

In 1 meter of aluminum cable with a cross-sectional area of 240 mm. 0.6467 kg pure aluminum
