• Head Weight
• Material Weight

Flat Head Calculator

Calculate the required blank diameter, head height, and weight using the required dimensional and material inputs.

2:1 Ellipsoidal Head Calculator

Calculate important head dimensions including crown radius, knuckle radius, height, blank diameter, and weight. The calculation can also account for straight face dimensions where applicable.

Torispherical / F&D Head Calculator

Calculate crown radius, knuckle radius, head height, blank diameter, and estimated weight for torispherical pressure vessel heads.

Hemispherical Head Calculator

Calculate radius, height, blank diameter, and weight for hemispherical pressure vessel heads.

Ellipsoidal Head Template Layout

Generate template layout marking information for ellipsoidal heads to assist with plate marking, cutting, fabrication, and forming operations.
