Need Calculation for get OD Size (Steel) Max

(OP)
Hello,

I am trying to get the calculation for the OD Maximum.  When I have the ID, Length, and Coil Weight.  I know its out there because there are online calculators but I can't find the actual formula!

RE: Need Calculation for get OD Size (Steel) Max

Coil weight = density * (Volume of the OD Cylinder - Volume of ID Cylinder)

RE: Need Calculation for get OD Size (Steel) Max

Ooopss you dont have width.. You're going to need that.

(Also max OD might be a handling or packaging or un-coiling requirement and not related to the physical size of the coil. It could be limit of the purchasers equipment.)
