The slenderness ratio is an indicator that expresses the risk of buckling of a cross section. A cross-section with a high slenderness ratio is particularly susceptible to buckling.
For long, slender cutting dies, this load scenario must be backed up by a control calculation.6053

Example I A bar with the moment of area 19175 mm4, a cross-sectional area of 491 mm2 and a buckling length of 100 mm has a slenderness ratio of 16 with a radius of gyration of 6.25 mm.
