Grain To Stone (Gr To St) Converter

The Grain To Stone (Gr To St) Converter is a handy tool designed to help you easily convert measurements between grains and stones, which are units commonly used for weighing small quantities, especially in contexts like jewelry, precious metals, or personal weight measurements.

A grain (abbreviated as “gr”) is a small unit of weight primarily used in measuring precious metals, gemstones, and gunpowder. One grain is equal to exactly 0.0648 grams. The formula to convert grains to grams is:

Grams = Number of grains × 0.0648

A stone (abbreviated as “st”) is a larger unit of weight mainly used in the UK and Ireland for measuring body weight. One stone equals 14 pounds, and since one pound is 16 ounces, one stone equals 224 ounces. To convert stones to grams, use the following formula:

Grams = Number of stones × 14 pounds × 16 ounces × 28.3495 grams

To convert from grains to stones, first convert grains to grams, then grams to stones. The conversion formula from grains to stones is:

Stones = (Number of grains × 0.0648) ÷ (14 × 16 × 28.3495)

This tool simplifies these calculations, allowing you to input a value in grains or stones and instantly see the equivalent measurement in the other unit. Whether you’re weighing jewelry, precious metals, or tracking body weight, the Grain To Stone Converter makes conversions quick and easy for beginners and experts alike.
