Unit Conversion Categories

Our unit converter covers 15 categories with 200+ individual units — everything from everyday conversions (inches to centimeters, kilograms to pounds) to scientific and engineering measurements (hectopascals to atmospheres, ergs to joules).

  • 📏 Length (mm, cm, m, km, inch, foot, yard, mile, nautical mile)
  • ⚖️ Weight / Mass (mg, g, kg, ton, ounce, pound, stone)
  • 🌡️ Temperature (Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin, Rankine)
  • 🧊 Volume (ml, L, fl oz, cup, pint, quart, gallon)
  • 📐 Area (cm², m², km², inch², foot², acre, hectare)
  • ⚡ Speed (m/s, km/h, mph, knots, Mach)
  • ⏱️ Time (ms, seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years)
  • 💾 Data (bits, bytes, KB, MB, GB, TB, PB)
  • And 7 more categories...

How to Convert Units

1

Select Category

Click the category tab (Length, Weight, Temperature, etc.) or type to search for a specific unit name.

2

Enter Your Value

Type your number in the "From" field and select the unit. The converted value appears instantly in all equivalent units simultaneously.

3

Find Your Target Unit

All conversions for the category display at once — scroll to find your target unit or use the search to jump directly to it.

All-At-Once Display: Instead of selecting a single target unit, our converter shows conversions to all units in the category simultaneously. Enter 5 kg and instantly see the equivalent in pounds, ounces, grams, tons, and every other weight unit — no need to convert repeatedly.

Temperature Conversion — Special Cases

Temperature conversion is non-linear (unlike most unit conversions which are simple multiplication), so the formulas are worth knowing:

  • Celsius to Fahrenheit: (°C × 9/5) + 32
  • Fahrenheit to Celsius: (°F − 32) × 5/9
  • Celsius to Kelvin: °C + 273.15
  • Key references: 0°C = 32°F (freezing), 100°C = 212°F (boiling), 37°C = 98.6°F (body temperature)

Data Size Conversion — Bits, Bytes & Beyond

Data size conversion is unique because it uses two different base systems: base-10 (SI units: 1 KB = 1,000 bytes) and base-2 (binary: 1 KiB = 1,024 bytes). Hard drive manufacturers use base-10 (why your 1TB drive shows as 931GB in Windows). Operating systems use base-2. Our tool handles both conventions clearly labeled.
