Key points to note:

Material Density: The weights are calculated based on the standard density of cold-rolled steel, which is approximately 7.85 g/cm³ (7850 kg/m³).

Thickness Tolerance: Cold-rolled steel plates typically have tighter thickness tolerances compared to hot-rolled plates, usually within ±0.03mm for thinner gauges.

Surface Finish: CR steel plates generally have a smoother surface finish, which may slightly affect the overall weight due to reduced surface irregularities.

Applications: These weight calculations are particularly useful for industries such as automotive, appliance manufacturing, and precision sheet metal fabrication where material optimization is crucial.

Additional Considerations: When using these weights for practical applications, consider factors such as coating weight (if applicable), edge conditions, and any specific manufacturing tolerances.

Customization: For non-standard sizes or alloy compositions, it’s recommended to consult with the steel supplier or use specialized calculation tools for more accurate weight estimations.

Remember that while these theoretical weights provide a good baseline, actual weights may vary slightly due to manufacturing variations and material composition. For critical applications, it’s advisable to verify weights through physical measurement or supplier certification.
