Convert Gauss to Millitesla
Enter the number of gauss that you want to convert to milliteslas.
How to Convert Gauss to Milliteslas
The gauss and millitesla are both units of magnetic field. By definition, 1 millitesla equals exactly 10000000000 gauss. This means to convert gauss to milliteslas, you divide by 10000000000.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 G to milliteslas:
We need to convert gauss to milliteslas
Since 1 mT = 10000000000 G, divide by 10000000000
5 ÷ 10000000000 = 5e-10
5 G = 5e-10 mT

About These Units
Gauss (G)
The gauss (G) is the CGS unit of magnetic flux density. One tesla = 10,000 gauss. Earth's field: 0.25-0.65 G. Refrigerator magnet: 50-100 G. Neodymium magnet: 10,000-14,000 G at surface. Named after mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss.
Millitesla (mT)
A millitesla (mT) equals 0.001 teslas or 10 gauss. Common range for permanent magnets: fridge magnet 5 mT, speaker magnet 100-400 mT, hard drive head 10-50 mT. Used in electronics, medical devices, and magnetic sensors.
