Wood (Balsa) density and calculation basis

Wood (Balsa) is represented in this table by a fixed reference density of 160 kg/m^3, equivalent to 0.16 g/cm^3. Representative balsa wood density.

At this fixed reference, 1 liter of Wood (Balsa) corresponds to 0.16 kg, while 1 kg corresponds to 6.25 liters. Its table density is 84.0% lower than the 997 kg/m^3 water reference used in this dataset.

Among the 5 fixed table records labeled Wood and paper, the nearest density to Wood (Balsa) is Wood (Pine) at 500 kg/m^3: an absolute difference of 340 kg/m^3 (212.5% relative to Wood (Balsa)). 0 records have a lower fixed density and 4 have a higher one. The observed range in this labeled group is Wood (Balsa) at 160 kg/m^3 to Paper at 800 kg/m^3. This is a numerical comparison, not a claim that the materials are interchangeable.

For this direction, mass is calculated as volume multiplied by density after normalizing the units to cubic meters and kilograms. The resulting page multiplier is 0.00066763 ton (US) per gal (US).

The fixed value supports repeatable calculations but is not a batch, grade, supplier, or laboratory specification. Use a measured or certified density when those conditions control the result.
