Unit Converter

Free, fast, no-signup unit conversion tools

Ten converters covering the measurements that come up in everyday life, from recipes and road trips to tire pressure and file sizes. Results update as you type.

Exact definitions, not rounded ones

Every converter uses the exact definitions behind each unit. An inch is defined as exactly 2.54 centimeters and a pound as exactly 0.45359237 kilograms, so conversions are only limited by ordinary floating-point arithmetic, not by a rounded factor copied from a table. Each converter page also has a quick-reference list of the most common values, handy when you just need a rough figure.

Several units share a name but not a size, which is where most conversion mistakes come from. A US gallon is smaller than a UK gallon, a US ton isn't a metric ton, and a gigabyte on a drive label isn't the same as the gigabyte Windows reports. The converters label which version they use (US gallons, US tons, metric tons, and 1,024-based storage units), and the guides explain where the differences came from.
