How to figure out how much the mild steel channel weighs?
Mild steel channels are U-shaped steel structures that can be described by the size and thickness of their sides. Mild steel channels have two parts: the flange at the bottom and the web at the top. The flange is the horizontal part at the bottom, and the web is the vertical part at the top.
It has sides that are not the same length. For example, a Mild Steel channel has sides that are 100 mm wide and 50 mm wide, and it is 5 mm thick.
MS channel size
We know that MS channel consists of flange and web, it comes in several sizes ranging between 75×40×4.8 mm to 400× 100× 8.8 mm.
The weight of the MS channel is calculated in Kg per meter or in Kg per foot. Clearly higher dimensions will have higher weighted values and lower dimensions have a lower weight value.
For example, an MS channel has a dimension of 100×50×5 mm
Mild Steel Channel Unit Weight
Unit weight of MS channel calculated by formula weight = volume × density & density of steel is 7850 Kg/m3 and volume is calculated by multiplying web height × flange width × thickness.
Mild Steel Channel Weight in kg per Meter
MS Web Volume
MS Channel Size = 100×50×5 mm
Web Depth = 100 mm =0.1m
Web Thickness = 5 mm=0.005 m
Web Length = 1 m
Volume = l×b×h
Volume = 0.1×0.005×1 m3
Web Volume = 0.0005 m3
- Two flange Volume
MS Channel Size = 100×50×5 mm
Flange Width = 50_5 mm =45mm=0.045 m
Flange Thickness = 5 mm=0.005 m
Flange Length = 1 m
Volume = l×b×h
Volume = 0.045×0.005×1 m3
Flange Volume = 0.000225 m3
Two Flange Volume = 0.000225×2 m3
Two Flange Volume of = 0.000450 m3
MS channel Total volume
Total volume = volume of flange+ volume of web
Total volume = 0.000450 +0.0005 m3
Total volume =0.000950m3
4) Weight of MS channel
Weight = volume× density
Volume = 0.000950 m3
Density of steel = 7850 kg/m3
Weight = 0.000950m3×7850 kg/m3
Weight of MS channel = 7.45 kg/m
Ans: MS channel unit weight will be 7.45 kg

Production-linked incentive: The deadline for steel PLI applications may be pushed back again: As a result, instead of 2023-24 as proposed in the scheme guideline announced in October, the release of incentives under the scheme would begin in 2024-25.
What is a Scheduled 40 Steel Pipe? : The most common pipe schedule is Schedule 40 steel pipe. It can be galvanized but isn’t required, and it’s commonly used in water and gas lines. It can also show up in spots that require decoration or support.
