Ounce to Stone (oz to st)
Result
0.004464285714 Stone
Formula
st = oz × 0.004464285714
1 oz = 0.004464285714 st, and 1 st = 224 oz.
The kilogram is the SI base unit of mass, defined through the Planck constant since 2019. The international avoirdupois pound is exactly 0.45359237 kg; the ounce is 1/16 lb and the stone 14 lb.
Worked examples
- 1 oz × 0.004464285714 = 0.0044642857 st
- 10 oz × 0.004464285714 = 0.044642857 st
- 100 oz × 0.004464285714 = 0.44642857 st
Common mistakes
- Precious metals use the troy ounce (31.1034768 g), about 10% heavier than the avoirdupois ounce (28.349523125 g) used for food and parcels.
- "Ton" is ambiguous: the metric tonne used here is 1,000 kg, the US short ton 907.18474 kg and the UK long ton 1,016.0469088 kg.
- Kilograms and pounds measure mass. Pound-force (lbf) and newtons measure force — they are not interchangeable with kg.
