MS Angle Weight Chart is essential for engineers, fabricators, and builders looking to make accurate calculations in steel structure projects. Whether you’re dealing with equal or unequal angles, mild steel (MS) angles are vital components in a variety of construction and fabrication jobs. In this guide, we provide a detailed, human-friendly and updated MS Angle Weight Chart per meter, per foot, and per piece—covering brands like Tata, Jindal, SAIL, and standard grades like IS 2062 and A36.MS Angle Weight Calculation Formula (L-Shaped)
MS Angle Weight kg in per miter

To calculate the weight of an MS angle:
Formula: Where:
- A = Leg 1 (mm)
- B = Leg 2 (mm)
- T = Thickness (mm)
- 0.00785 = Density of MS in g/mm³

What is an MS Angle?
An MS Angle, or Mild Steel Angle, is a structural steel product with an L-shaped cross-section. It comes in equal and unequal sides and is widely used across commercial and residential construction.
Why do professionals use MS Angles?
- Affordable and easy to fabricate
- High load-bearing strength
- Readily weldable
- Widely available across India
Whether you’re building a steel staircase or installing solar panel frames, MS angles are a go-to choice for strength and support.
