How is width density described in Carpet

In woven carpet that is called Pitch & In tufted carpet it is called "gauge"

Pitch is the number of rows across 27" of weft.. so a 180 Pitch would have 180 rows of yarn across 27 inches or about 6.7 per inch

a 270 pitch is obviously more yarns in the same area so it should be tighter if the yarn size is the same at 10 yarns per inch across the weft

In tufted carpet we measure the spacing from the center of adjacent needles. for example if iis 1/10" between needles we call it "Tenth gauge" of if it's 1/8" between we call it Eighth Gauge..

From loose to tight the most common gauge in Tufting would be 5/32, 1/8, 1/10, 5/64, and the occasional 1/16 gauge machine does exist.

This question is very open ended. Do you want to convert a current price to a price in grams per square meter or: Do you want to calculate a new price using a known weight in grams per square meter. Answer those. I will check back... here is formula to calculate the cost of the material, 1: cost of the febric, (warp+weft)/(20*count of yarn) and multiply this by width of yarn and then *(1.09361/40) than *rate of the yarn. 2: cost of the interlacing, weft * rate of weaving 3: mending charges, 4: frieght charges, us$ rate*conversion+local frieght whole divided by quality of fabric add all these costs,this will be the per metere cost of the fabric


How can we calculate woven fabric weight by just having its area e.g 20x3060x50?

Total weight of fabric = 1 sqr meter warp + 1 sqr meter weft Total weight of fabric = 60/20 x 25 + 60/20 x25Total weight of fabric = 150 GSM.60/20x25+60/30x25 Total weight of fabric =125 gsm
