How to estimate - Wire Calculation
The data pages for the wire list the weight per metre for the popular sizes of wire.
If you multiply the length you want (in metres) by this number, you will get the approximate weight for the metal you are ordering
Example:
2.00 x 0.80mm Sterling Round wire lists 14.0 g per metre in the table above.
If you want 400mm, that is 0.4m
so 0.4 x 14.0 = 5.6g (approximately)
