Weight Converter
Convert between metric and imperial weight and mass units instantly.
Overview
Mass conversion follows from the exact definition of the international avoirdupois pound as 0.45359237 kilograms, agreed in 1959. An ounce is one sixteenth of that, and a stone — still in common use for body weight in the United Kingdom and Ireland — is fourteen pounds, or about 6.35 kg.

About
Several distinct pounds and ounces remain in circulation. The troy ounce used for precious metals is 31.103 grams against the avoirdupois ounce's 28.350, so a troy ounce of gold is about ten percent heavier than the ounce used for groceries, and a troy pound contains twelve troy ounces rather than sixteen.
Mass and weight are also distinct quantities that share units in everyday speech. Mass is invariant; weight is the force gravity exerts on it and varies with location, which is why a scale calibrated at sea level reads marginally differently at altitude.
