Magnetism Unit Conversions

Convert magnetic units in one place: magnetic flux density (tesla, gauss), magnetic field strength (A/m, oersted), magnetic flux (weber, maxwell) and more. Includes formulas, reference table, and CGS ⇄ SI notes.

Magnetic conversion

How to Use This Converter

Pick the magnetic quantity you need (B for flux density, H for field strength, Φ for magnetic flux), then choose the source and target units that belong to that group. Enter the numeric value you want to convert and click Convert. The result updates immediately in the right-hand card with six significant digits so you can compare values without rounding surprises.

The conversion relies on one consistent base unit per quantity (tesla for B, ampere per metre for H, and weber for Φ) and simply rescales the input and output units through that base value.

Methodology

Values are parsed as decimal numbers and normalized to the base unit, which ensures operations never mix incompatible units. We then divide by the target unit factor and return six-digit precision to match the previous converter experience.

Results are deterministic and are intended for quick reference; use engineering-grade equipment or standards when precise instrumentation is required.

Notes

  • For air/vacuum, oersted ↔ A/m factor ≈ 79.577.
  • 1 tesla is a very strong field: most permanent magnets surface ≈ 0.1–0.6 T.
  • To convert B ↔ H through a material, specify its permeability and use B = μH.
