Wire Mesh Weight Calculator
Estimate wire mesh, welded mesh and stainless mesh weight by material, wire diameter, opening, panel or roll size for importers, distributors and project procurement teams before sending an RFQ.
How to Use
Choose the material, then enter wire diameter, opening or center spacing, panel or roll size, and quantity. If you only know clear opening, the calculator adds wire diameter to estimate pitch.
Formula
Total wire length is estimated from wire count in both directions. Weight equals wire length multiplied by round wire cross-section and material density.
weight = total wire length x PI x (wire diameter / 2)^2 x density
Example
For a 1 m x 2 m welded wire mesh panel, 3 mm wire, 50 x 50 mm clear opening, galvanized steel and 10 pieces, the tool estimates piece weight and total order weight for RFQ preparation.

Is this wire mesh weight result exact?
No. The calculator provides a sourcing estimate. Final weight may change because of welding points, edge wires, coating thickness, tolerance, packing and production method.
Can I use this calculator for welded wire mesh panels?
Yes. Use the panel width and length, choose the wire diameter and enter clear opening or center-to-center spacing according to your drawing.
Can I use it for stainless steel wire mesh?
Yes. Select Stainless Steel 304 or Stainless Steel 316 so the calculator uses the corresponding density for the weight estimate.
Why can the quotation weight differ from the calculator result?
A quotation may include edge treatment, overlap, reinforced wires, coating, pallet weight, moisture protection and export packing requirements.
