Weight Converter 2026 | kg ↔ lbs, g ↔ oz, Stone, Tola & Global Units

A Weight Converter helps you convert between common weight and mass units such as grams (g), kilograms (kg), pounds (lb), ounces (oz), stones (st), and metric tonnes (t). It is useful for international shopping, fitness tracking, cooking measurements, shipping weights, and comparing weights across countries that use metric and imperial systems.

In everyday use, people say “weight” when they mean how heavy something is. Scientifically, mass is the amount of matter (measured in kg), while weight is the force due to gravity (measured in newtons). For practical conversions in daily life (body weight, packages, groceries), kg and lb conversions are treated as weight equivalents.

To convert kilograms to pounds, multiply the kg value by 2.20462. Example: 70 kg ≈ 154.32 lb. This is the most common global conversion used for body weight, gym tracking, and international product specifications.

To convert pounds to kilograms, multiply the lb value by 0.453592. Example: 150 lb ≈ 68.04 kg. This conversion is widely used when comparing body weight between the USA (lb) and metric countries (kg).

Pounds and ounces are both imperial units. 1 pound (lb) equals 16 ounces (oz). Ounces are used for smaller weights like food portions, ingredients, and product packaging—especially in the USA.

To convert grams to ounces, divide by 28.3495. Example: 100 g ≈ 3.53 oz. This is commonly used in cooking, nutrition labels, and international product comparisons.

To convert ounces to grams, multiply by 28.3495. Example: 8 oz ≈ 226.8 g. This conversion is useful for recipes, food tracking, and shopping across regions.

Stone (st) is an imperial unit commonly used in the UK and Ireland to express body weight. 1 stone equals 14 pounds (lb). Many UK weight references use stone and pounds together, such as 11 st 4 lb.

To convert stone to kilograms, multiply by 6.35029. Example: 10 st ≈ 63.5 kg. If you have stone and pounds together (e.g., 11 st 4 lb), convert both into total pounds first and then convert to kg.

A metric tonne (t) equals 1,000 kilograms and is used internationally. A ton can refer to different systems: the US short ton equals 2,000 lb (about 907.185 kg), while the UK long ton equals 2,240 lb (about 1,016.05 kg). Brutally honest: 'ton' is confusing globally—if precision matters, use 'tonne' or specify US/UK ton.

Small differences happen due to rounding and decimal precision. One converter may show 2 decimal places while another shows 4 or 6. The underlying conversion factors are standard, but displayed results can vary based on rounding rules.
