skibuilders shop --> FB oz gr sq yd m²...

Post by alexisg1 »

Hi everyone,

looking ta skibuilders shop, i saw the 19 oz / sq yd Fiberglass (http://skibuilders.com/cart/products/Tr ... -24-2.html)
Then it said, it's 744 g/m²...
As I'm not used to the american system, I looked for answer and saw :
x 19 ounces = 538.64 grams
x 1 m² = 1.1960 sq yd

So my calculation gives me around 645 g / m²

Can someone help me on that one ?
thx

Laaaaaaate reply but someone is sure to wonder the same thing.

744gsm = 22oz/sq yd
645gsm = 19oz/sq yd

1oz/sq yd = 33.906gsm
