One liter of lead

How much does an one liter of lead weigh?

One liter of lead weighs about 11 kg (25 lb).

💻 That's about the weight of 9 laptops — or 11 liters of water 💧, or 18 basketballs 🏀.

At 11 kg, it ranks #3 of 5 in Materials (lightest to heaviest) — heavier than One liter of iron (7.9 kg) and lighter than One liter of mercury (14 kg).

This is one of the catalog's biggest surprises — and since it's a standardized product, the number above is exact, not an average.

A liter of lead weighs 11.34 kg — a cube you can hold in one hand that outweighs a loaded toolbox.
