Convert kg to metric tons or tons to kg
Hi fellow engineers, have you ever had a hard time converting kg (kilograms) to metric tons? Heavy equipment often uses tons, but sometimes we have to adjust to kg units for purchasing or support materials.
Don’t worry, we have created a kg and ton conversion calculator or vice versa. Friends just use as much as you want.

What is the difference between kg (kilogram) and ton?
These 2 units are actually both used to calculate the weight of an object. But tons often used to defined heavier units. It is like if we say it using kg , it will be to long .
Example for easier pronunciation:
2,5 tons = 2500 kg. To say 2500 kg in everyday pronunciation is much longer than to say 2 and a half tons or 2.5 tons.
That’s about the pronunciation, my friend.

Kg and ton conversion formula
- Kilogram (kg) to Ton:
Ton=1000kg
- Ton to Kilogram (kg):
kg=Ton×1000
Conversion example:
- 2500 kg = 2500 ÷ 1000 = 2.5 tons
- 3 tons = 3 × 1000 = 3000 kg
- 1000 kg to ton = 1 ton
