Can anyone tell me what type of glass SolidWorks used for the default density?
I am trying to determine the weight of a lens in an assembly and the Mass properties answer seems to be off by a factor of 1.75.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I know how to customize the properties for the density, but I need to know if it is my number that is off or if SolidWorks used a glass with a different property.

Sorry I may not have explained that well enough in my first post.
