Preferred numbers ISO 3: 1973  (DIN 323-1: 1974)

These preferred numbers are used for wire diameters as well as for apertures of woven wire cloth.

Preferred numbers are the conventionally rounded off term values of geometrical series, including the integral powers of 10 and having as ratios the following factors:

 

Formula to calculate the wire cross diameter A (mm2):

 

Formula to determine the wire length L (m/kg):

(Reference: ISO 4782, Oktober 1993)

ρ = material density in kg/m3

 

 

Examples for Steel, ρ = 7850 kg/m3 *:
