Long tons (LT) to Stones (st) Conversion
Long tons
The long ton is a unit of mass equal to exactly 2,240 pounds (approximately 1,016.05 kilograms), used primarily in the United Kingdom and countries that have historically used the British imperial system. It is standard in the British shipping, maritime, and mining industries, where the displacement of vessels is expressed in long tons. The long ton differs from the US short ton (2,000 lb) by 240 pounds — a distinction critical in international cargo contracts and commodities trading.
Stones
The stone is a unit of mass equal to exactly 14 pounds (approximately 6.35 kilograms), used almost exclusively in the United Kingdom and Ireland for expressing human body weight. Standardised by the Weights and Measures Act of 1835, the stone persists in British popular culture and medical contexts despite not being part of the SI system.
