hectotesla to gauss
Convert hectotesla (hT) to gauss (G). Use an editable magnetic flux density converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 hT = 1,000,000 G
Conversion formula
One hectotesla equals 1,000,000 gauss. Multiply your value in hectotesla by this factor to get gauss. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 hectotesla:5 × 1,000,000 = 5,000,000 G

About these measurements
Magnetic flux density describes a magnetic field over area.
The base reference used here is the tesla. One hectotesla is 100 base units; one gauss is 0.0001 base units.
Important distinctions
One gauss equals 0.0001 tesla.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
Common questions
How do I convert hT to G?
Multiply the quantity in hT by 1,000,000. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the gauss to hectotesla converter.
