Convert Ounces to US tons

1 ounce is 0.00003125 ton. One ounce is exactly 0.00003125 US tons.

One ounce is 3.1250 × 10^-5 US tons. To convert ounces to US tons, multiply by 3.1250 × 10^-5; to go the other way, divide by 3.1250 × 10^-5 or multiply by 32000. The relation is exact but the figure is not: it is a rounding of a number that does not terminate, and it follows from NIST Handbook 44. One sixteenth of a pound.

What is an ounce?

One sixteenth of a pound. Not to be confused with the fluid ounce, which measures volume.

What is a US ton?

The short ton: 2,000 pounds. A metric tonne is about 10% heavier and a British long ton about 12%.

How many US tons are in an ounce?

One ounce is 3.1250 × 10^-5 US tons. Going the other way, one US ton is 32000 ounces. Both figures come from the same defined relation rather than from a measurement, which is why they are the same today as they were in 1959.
