Film Roll Weight Calculator

Net weight of a plastic film roll from width, thickness, length and density (core excluded).

Inputs

mm
µm
m
g/cm³

LDPE ≈ 0.92, HDPE ≈ 0.95, BOPP ≈ 0.905, PET ≈ 1.39

Results

Net film weight
46 kg
Net film weight
101.41 lb
Film area
2,000 m²

Formula

Weight (kg) = Width (mm) × Thickness (µm) × Length (m) × Density (g/cm³) ÷ 1,000,000

Assumptions & limits

  • Core, end plugs and packaging are excluded — add the core weight separately for gross weight.
  • Thickness is the nominal average; real gauge variation directly changes the result.
  • Single-layer flat film. For tubing or folded film, enter the total layflat width × number of layers.

Worked example

1000 × 25 × 2000 × 0.92 ÷ 1,000,000 = 46 kg net film weight.
