Magnetic Flux Density formula and what each symbol means
target = value × (factor of starting unit ÷ factor of target unit), where each factor is the unit value in T.
| Symbol | Meaning |
|---|---|
| value | The number you want to convert |
| factor | The unit’s size expressed in the base unit (T) |

How to read your Magnetic Flux Density result
Magnetic flux density (B) is measured in tesla. One gauss is exactly 1×10⁻⁴ T, so 1 T is 10,000 G. Earth’s field is about 25 to 65 µT, or roughly 0.25 to 0.65 G.
| UNIT | SYMBOL | EQUALS | VALUE OF 1 T |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tesla | T | 1 T = 1 T | 1 T |
| Millitesla | mT | 1 mT = 0.001 T | 1,000 mT |
| Microtesla | µT | 1 µT = 0.000001 T | 1,000,000 µT |
| Nanotesla | nT | 1 nT = 1×10⁻⁹ T | 1,000,000,000 nT |
| Gauss | G | 1 G = 0.0001 T | 10,000 G |
| Kilogauss | kG | 1 kG = 0.1 T | 10 kG |
| Weber per square meter | Wb/m² | 1 Wb/m² = 1 T | 1 Wb/m² |
| Maxwell per square centimeter | Mx/cm² | 1 Mx/cm² = 0.0001 T | 10,000 Mx/cm² |
| Gamma | γ | 1 γ = 1×10⁻⁹ T | 1,000,000,000 γ |
Common mistakes when calculating Magnetic Flux Density
- Mixing gauss and tesla, which differ by 10,000.
- Confusing flux density (T) with field strength (A/m).
- Mixing mT and µT, which differ by 1,000.
Magnetic Flux Density FAQ
How many gauss is 1 tesla?
1 T is 10,000 G.
How strong is Earth’s magnetic field?
About 25 to 65 µT depending on location.
How many µT is 1 mT?
1 mT is 1,000 µT.
What is the base unit for magnetic flux density?
This converter uses tesla (T) as the common base unit: every value is first converted to it and then to the target unit.
How do I convert between two magnetic flux density units?
Choose the starting and target units, enter the value and read the result. By hand: convert to the base unit with the table, then divide by the target unit factor.
How many milliteslas are in 1 tesla?
1 T = 1,000 mT.
How many microteslas are in 1 tesla?
1 T = 1,000,000 µT.
How many gauss are in 1 tesla?
1 T = 10,000 G.
Which magnetic flux density units does this converter support?
It covers 9 units: tesla (T), millitesla (mT), microtesla (µT), nanotesla (nT), gauss (G), kilogauss (kG), weber per square meter (Wb/m²), maxwell per square centimeter (Mx/cm²), gamma (γ).
How accurate is the magnetic flux density converter?
Results are calculated at full double precision and shown to about 8 significant figures. Round the answer to the precision of your original measurement; a result cannot be more accurate than the number you started with.
