Fabric weight is usually listed as a GSM value. (Grams per square metre) This is the weight for 1 square metre. (1 metre x 1 metre) If fabric is on a roll, measure width of the roll, and multiply by GSM rating to get weight in grams per linear/lineal metre. Examples - GSM rating 500, Roll width 2.5 metre= 1250g or 1.25Kg per linear metre. GSM rating 155, Roll width 3 metre= 465g 0r 0.65Kg per linear metre.

The weight of 1 lineal meter of fabric can vary depending on the type and thickness of the fabric. On average, a lineal meter of lightweight fabric like cotton may weigh around 100-200 grams, while heavier fabrics like denim could weigh closer to 500-800 grams. It's best to consult the fabric specifications or weigh a sample to determine the exact weight.
