Anyone know a good reference for this info?

Using NX 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
 
If you're models are accurate and you assign the proper materials, NX will roll-up the weight for you automatically.
