Convert Teslas to Kiloteslas
Convert Teslas (T) to Kiloteslas (kT) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
kT = T × 0.001
About Teslas
The tesla (T) is the SI coherent unit of magnetic flux density, equal to 1 Wb/m² = 1 kg·s⁻²·A⁻¹. Clinical MRI scanners operate at 1.5-3 T; research MRI at 7-11.7 T; the strongest continuous electromagnet is 45 T (NHMFL); NdFeB remanence is about 1.0-1.4 T. 1 T = 10⁴ G = 1 Wb/m².
About Kiloteslas
The kilotesla (kT) equals 10³ T. Encountered only in pulsed-power physics experiments: the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) 100 T pulsed magnets approach 0.1 kT; explosive-driven flux compression generators have reached 2.8 kT (2 800 T) in short pulses. 1 kT = 10³ T = 10⁷ G.
