Imperial Glass Weight Technical Data Calculation Note:
If you wish to calculate Imperial Glass Thicknesses that are not listed on the table above then please undertake the following calculation:
Glass Thickness Decimal Inches (“) multiplied by 0.0129765 multiplied by 1000 = Weight lb/sq Foot
Example: 1.5″ multiplied by 0.0129765 multiplied by 1000 = 19.46 lb/sq Foot

| 15mm | 37.40 Kg/m² |
| 19mm | 47.37 Kg/m² |
| Glass Thickness Metric (mm) | Weight Kg/m² |
Metric Glass Weight Technical Data Calculation Note:
If you wish to calculate Metric Glass Thicknesses that are not listed on the table above then please undertake the following calculation:
Glass Thickness Metric (mm) multiplied by 2.49375 = Weight Kg/m2
Example: 38mm multiplied by 2.49375 = 94.76 Kg/m2
