Magnetic Field Converter
Convert magnetic flux density among T, mT, µT, and gauss using tesla as the reference.
How to use
- Enter magnetic flux density B and choose the sensor/specification and target units among T, mT, µT, and gauss.
Capabilities and scope
Compare SI tesla and gauss notation for magnetic flux density B.
How it works
Tesla is the reference with mT=10⁻³ T, µT=10⁻⁶ T, and 1 gauss=10⁻⁴ T.
Example
1 T equals 10,000 gauss.
Useful for
- Compare magnet specifications in gauss and T
- Rescale µT sensor readings
- Translate SI/CGS magnetic-field data
Before you use it
- Magnetic field strength H in A/m is a different quantity; B and H need material permeability for conversion.

Frequently asked questions
Can I convert gauss to oersted directly?
They refer to different B/H quantities, so a simple unit conversion is not valid without medium conditions.
