Work out any number of 6 mm bars
How it is worked out
2 soot is 2 eighths of an inch, ¼ inch, which is 6.35 mm; it is sold as 6 mm. The weight of a round steel bar in kg per metre is its diameter in millimetres squared, divided by 162.2: 6.35 × 6.35 = 40.3, and 40.3 ÷ 162.2 = 0.249 kg per metre.
One foot is 0.3048 metres, so a foot weighs 0.076 kg and a 40 ft bar 3.03 kg. Real bars can be a little lighter or heavier than the standard weight, so weigh a sample when the exact weight matters.
