Footage on Roll
Calculate the linear footage remaining on a roll given OD, core OD, and thickness.
↓ Jump to CalculatorHow to use it
- Measure the outside diameter (OD) of the roll in inches.
- Enter the outside diameter of the core in inches.
- Enter the thickness of one wrap in mil.
- The remaining footage appears in feet and metres.
Example
A roll with a 10″ OD on a 3.5″ core, wound with 2 mil sheeting: about 2,870 ft left on the roll.
Good to know
- For lay-flat tubing, one wrap is two layers, so enter double the gauge.
- Measure the OD across the full roll, not just the outer edge of the film.
- Tightly wound rolls match the result closely; loosely wound rolls hold a little less than calculated.
