Specific Weight of Materials Reference
Specific Weight of Materials Reference
(OP)
Anyone know a good reference for this info?
Using NX (CAD program) I can get the volume of my tooling but I need the specific weight of the material to calculate the weight.
I haven't found a good site to get this info. I'm using English units also.
Materials such as Alum. 7075, 8620 steel, 4140, Magnesium, etc.
Thanks

However, I would ask if each of your CAD part models has the correct material density applied? Just knowing the total volume of your tool assembly times a single density will not give a correct weight if there are different materials used.
