Pins used by Dressmakers are made either from brass or from steel. They can be short or long so there is a lot of variation in the weight of individual pins . They will weigh somewhere within the range of 50 to 100 milligram each pin. I suggest that you count out about 100 pins and weigh the lot on sensitive electronic kitchen scales or ask them at the delicatessen section at your supermarket, to weigh them for you . Put them in a bit of 'glad wrap' to hold them together. Now divide the weight of them by 100 and that's your answer. The 'glad wrap' weighs practically nothing.

What all pin is sink in water?

A pin sinks in water primarily due to its density being greater than that of water. While the pin may have a small surface area, which could create some buoyant force, the overall weight of the pin exceeds this force, causing it to sink. Additionally, the shape of the pin does not allow for sufficient displacement of water to counteract its weight. Thus, the combination of its density and weight leads to sinking.
