HOW TO USE FLAT WIRE WEIGHT TABLES
SQUARE EDGE FLAT WIRE
Read Directly from Table II
ROUND EDGE FLAT WIRE
To determine weight per 1000 feet of Round Edge Beryllium Copper Flat Wire, the appropriate “Correction Factor” in Table I (Below) is applied to the weight taken from “Weight Table II for Square Edge Flat Wire.
EXAMPLE
To find LB/1000 FT .010 x .020 Round Edge Flat Wire
Note:
Width/Thickness Ratio = 2.0
From Weight Table II: LB/1000 FT .010 x .020 . . . . 0.72
Multiply by: factor for 2.0 Width/Thickness Ratio . . . x .92
Answer: LB/1000 FT Round Edge Flat Wire . . . . . . 0.66

For Other Materials:
Multiply the Beryllium Copper figure (either Square Edge or Round Edge) by the factor indicated below:
| MATERIAL | FACTOR | EXAMPLE | |
| 10 Alloy | 1.06 | To Find: LB/1000 Ft .010 x .020 | |
| Phosphor Bronze | 1.08 | Copper Round Edge Flat Wire | |
| Nickel Ssilver | 1.06 | From Table (Corrected): LB?1000 Ft .010 x .020. . . . | 0.66 |
| Brass | 1.04 | Multiply by: Factor for Copper . . . . . . | x 1.09 |
| Copper | 1.09 | ||
| Aluminum | 0.33 | Answer: LB/1000 Ft .010 x .020 Copper. . . . . . . . . | 0.72 |
