Weight Converter
Convert weight units: kilograms, pounds, grams, ounces and more.
Weight and mass conversions are needed in cooking, medicine, shipping, fitness, and commerce. This converter handles metric units (mg, g, kg, tonne), imperial units (ounce, pound, stone, US ton, imperial ton), and traditional Indian units (tola, masha, ratti, maund, seer) — critical for gold, silver, and agricultural commodity transactions where traditional units remain in common use.
📋 How to Use This Calculator
Enter a weight value and select the source unit. All conversions appear simultaneously. The gold tab shows common gold weight units — grams, tola, troy ounce — since gold in India is quoted in tola (10 grams) and internationally in troy ounces (31.1 grams). The cooking tab shows conversions between kitchen units (cups, tablespoons, teaspoons) for common ingredients.
