How to Convert Tons to Kilograms

To convert a measurement in tons to a measurement in kilograms, multiply the weight by the following conversion ratio: 907.18474 kilograms/ton.

Since one ton is equal to 907.18474 kilograms, you can use this simple formula to convert:

kilograms = tons × 907.18474

The weight in kilograms is equal to the weight in tons multiplied by 907.18474.

For example, here's how to convert 5 tons to kilograms using the formula above.

kilograms = (5 t × 907.18474) = 4,535.9237 kg

How Many Kilograms Are in a Ton?

There are 907.18474 kilograms in a ton, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

What Is a Ton?

One ton, also known as a short ton or a US ton, is equal to 2,000 pounds and is mostly used in the US as a unit of weight.[1] One ton is equal to 907.18474 kilograms.

The ton is a US customary unit of weight. A ton is sometimes also referred to as a short ton. Tons can be abbreviated as t; for example, 1 ton can be written as 1 t.

The short ton should not be confused with the long ton, which is used mostly in the United Kingdom, or the metric ton which is used in most other countries.

What Is a Kilogram?

One kilogram is equal to 1,000 grams, 2.204623 pounds, or 1/1,000 of a metric ton.

The formal definition of the kilogram changed in 2019. One kilogram was previously equal to the mass of the platinum-iridium bar, known as the International Prototype of the Kilogram, which was stored in Sèvres, France.

The 2019 SI brochure now defines the kilogram using the Planck constant, and it is defined using the meter and second.[2] It is equal to the mass of 1,000 cubic centimeters, or milliliters, of water.

The kilogram, or kilogramme, is the SI base unit for weight and is also a multiple of the gram. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for thousands, or 103. Kilograms can be abbreviated as kg; for example, 1 kilogram can be written as 1 kg.
