Conversion Formulas
Feel free to convert kilograms (kg) to stones (st) and stones (st) to kilograms (kg) using our conversion chart, conversion calculator, and learn the relationship between these two units. Conversion of kilograms (kg) to stones (st) and stones (st) to kilograms (kg) is an easy one since both units are used for measuring mass.
And while kilogram is a unit of the SI system of units, obviously the stone is not a unit of the SI system of units.
One stone (st) is a unit of mass and it is defined as having exactly 14 pounds, while one pound (lb) is also a unit of mass and it is defined as having exactly 0.45359237 kg.
Thus we can find the relation between kilogram (kg) and stone (st):
M(stone) = 14 Pounds = 14 * 0.45359237 kg = 6.35029318 kg
M(kg) = M(st) / 6.35029318 = 0.15747304 st
Stone (st) as a unit of mass is mostly used for measuring the weight of the human body (sports events, for example, boxing) and very rarely in trade.
Over time, different values for stone were used, but after standardization 1 (one) stone is 14 pounds (pounds are also standardized to 0.45359237 kg), making the conversion from stone to kilograms and kilograms to stones much easier.
