Kilograms to Stone converter
Quick reference
About weight units
Metric weight runs from milligrams to kilograms in factors of a thousand, while the US customary system uses ounces (16 to a pound) and pounds. The exact bridge: one pound equals 0.45359237 kilograms, fixed by definition since 1959. Stone (14 pounds) survives mainly in British body-weight talk. Cooks converting recipes and travelers reading foreign scales are the everyday users; for precious metals, note these are avoirdupois ounces, not the troy ounces used for gold.
