Magnetic flux density converter

One tesla is 10 000 gauss exactly. Both survive because the tesla suits MRI magnets and the gauss suits everything weaker.

About magnetic flux density units

Convert tesla, gauss, milligauss, microtesla and gamma.

One tesla is 10 000 gauss exactly. Both survive because the tesla suits MRI magnets and the gauss suits everything weaker.

Dimensional formula: M T⁻² I⁻¹. Every conversion on this page goes through the tesla, using exact fractions rather than decimal approximations. Read how that works →
