Calculation Info

The Meter To Chain (M To Ch) Converter is a handy tool designed to help you easily convert measurements from meters to chains. This is useful in fields like surveying, construction, and land measurement where different units are used to describe distances.

A meter (m) is the basic unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the distance traveled by light in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 seconds. Meters are commonly used worldwide for everyday measurements and scientific purposes.

A chain (Ch), also known as a survey chain or Gunter’s chain, is an older unit of length primarily used in land surveying. One chain is equal to 66 feet or 22 yards. In metric terms, one chain is approximately 20.1168 meters.

To convert meters to chains, you can use the following formula:
Number of chains = Number of meters ÷ 20.1168

Simply input the measurement in meters into the converter, and it will automatically calculate the equivalent length in chains, making your measurements quick and accurate. This tool is perfect for anyone needing to switch between these units effortlessly.
