Teslas to centiteslas converter

Convert teslas (T) to centiteslas (cT). Calculate any value, follow the unit-factor steps and check a conversion table.

Updated · How we check
TRY YOUR OWN NUMBER Reverse conversion

Use a decimal point, such as 2.5. Enter a value in T; the result is in cT.

Centiteslas≈ 100cT

Formula

cT ≈ T × 100

Worked example

Convert 1 T to cT:

1 T ≈ 100 cT

Multiply your T value by the factor above. The calculator uses the full conversion factor before rounding the displayed answer.

What teslas measure

Teslas (T) represent magnetic flux density. One unit equals 10^0 T. One tesla equals one weber per square meter of magnetic flux density.

Reading the result in centiteslas

Centiteslas (cT) represent magnetic flux density. One unit equals 10^-2 T. One tesla equals one weber per square meter of magnetic flux density.

Where this conversion helps

Normalize magnetic field readings or instrument specifications. Flux density B in teslas is distinct from field strength H in amperes per meter; material properties connect them.

How the scale changes

The input unit has a factor of 1e0 T; the output unit has a factor of 1e-2 T. Multiply the entered number by the input factor, then divide by the output factor. The physical quantity stays the same while its numerical representation changes.

Reading very small or large results

Scientific notation keeps very small and large values readable: 2.5e-6 means 0.0000025. The converter calculates with 50 significant digits internally and displays up to 10. Exact unit definitions do not remove uncertainty from the original measurement.
