The gasket material usage calculator can be used as a stand-alone tool or it can take the results of the previous tool - the Gasket Height Calculator - and help you figure out how much material you will use on a part, how much it will cost, how long it will take to dispense, and how many gaskets can be obtained from the desired material vessel. The height calculator results found in the previous tool can pre-populate most of the data in this calculator. This makes it terrific for "what-if" scenarios. In addition, the units can be separately specified for each entry. Enter a value in metric, change the units to imperial, and the appropriate conversion is applied.
The tools are ultimately designed to be used in order: Gasket Height/Compression Set, Gasket Material Usage, and finally Pressure Drop/Material Flow.
