What Is an Epoxy Resin Calculator

An epoxy calculator provides an estimate of how much epoxy resin you will need to cover a rectangular or circular area and its cost. It collects information like the length, width, diameter, and thickness of your surface and outputs the amount of epoxy needed, the price for the materials, and the cubic area of your surface.

How To Use the Infinity Calculator Epoxy Calculator

Our epoxy calculator is very easy to use. If your surface is rectangular, enter the length, width, and thickness. For a circular surface, enter the diameter and thickness. Once your information is inputted, the calculator will return information related to how much resin you need, like the cubic area of your surface, the amount of resin you need, and the cost of that resin. We support both imperial and metric units, so this calculator will be easy for everyone to use!

Step 1: Enter Area Information

To find the amount of epoxy resin you need for a project, you need to enter the requested information into our calculator. We will provide a brief description of all the requested information below:

Width: The width of the area you want to cover in epoxy.

Length: The length of the area you want to cover in epoxy.

Thickness: The thickness of the area you want to cover in epoxy.

Diameter: The diameter of the circular object you want to cover in epoxy resin.

Cost: The price of your epoxy resin in dollars.

Step 2: Analyze Data

After entering your area information into our resin calculator and pressing the "calculate" button, it will provide useful data on how much epoxy you will need to cover it.

How Do I Calculate How Much Epoxy Resin I Need

Calculating exactly how much epoxy you need is very easy. To start, you need to find the volume of the area you want to cover in epoxy. To find this, you can use the following equation:

length x width x thickness = area

Once you have the area, you can directly convert it into your preferred liquid unit. In this example, we will use the metric system.

For example, if you have a 5m x 5m x 5m area that you want to cover in epoxy, you will multiply  5x5x5, which comes out to 125 cubic meters. You can then convert this into liters by dividing by 1000 as there are 1000 liters in one cubic meter. This results in you needing 125,000 liters of epoxy resin to fill a 5-meter cube fully.


Frequently Asked Questions

How Much Epoxy Should I Buy

To determine how much epoxy you should buy, you need to know the length, width, and desired thickness of the surface you want to cover. You can then enter that information into our epoxy calculator to get how much epoxy you need. You should then add around 5%-10% to that value to ensure you have enough epoxy to meet the unexpected demands of real life.

How Expensive Is Epoxy

The price of epoxy resin depends entirely on the type of epoxy you are purchasing. According to  Ultra Clear Epoxy, high-quality art and craft epoxy costs around $80 per gallon ($20 per liter). Most other types of epoxy resin will be cheaper than this. For example, designer deep-casting epoxy resin costs only $55 per gallon ($15 per liter).

How Much Epoxy Per Square Foot

To calculate the amount of epoxy needed per square foot, you need to determine the thickness of the epoxy you want to pour. For this example, we will use 1 inch. We can then input these values into our epoxy calculator:

Length: 1ft

Width: 1ft

Depth: 1in

Our calculator then returns the amount of epoxy you need, which is around  80 ounces. If you purchase the high-quality resin mentioned above, it would cost you $50 USD.
