Units explained
Ton (assay) (US)
The assay ton (US) equals about 29.167 grams, a mining-assay convenience unit.
Devised so an assay sample's metal in milligrams reads as troy ounces per short ton.
Ore assaying and metallurgy.
Adopted in assay laboratories to simplify ore-grade calculation.
Kilogram-force square second/meter
The kilogram-force second-squared per meter (the hyl or TME) is about 9.807 kg.
The mass unit of the metric gravitational (technical) system.
Older continental European engineering practice.
Used in the metric technical system before SI adoption.
Ton (assay) (US) to Kilogram-force square second/meter conversion formula
The relationship between tons (assay) (us) and kilogram-force square second/meters:
To convert tons (assay) (us) to kilogram-force square second/meters, multiply the value in tons (assay) (us) by 0.0029741726. To reverse, multiply kilogram-force square second/meters by 336.2279615739.

Step-by-step: convert tons (assay) (us) to kilogram-force square second/meters
- Write down the value in tons (assay) (us) (AT).
- Multiply that value by the factor 0.0029741726.
- The product is the equivalent value in kilogram-force square second/meters (hyl).
- To reverse, multiply the kilogram-force square second/meter value by 336.2279615739.
Worked examples
Example 1 — Convert 1 AT to hyl:
1 × 0.0029741726 = 0.0029741726 hyl
Example 2 — Convert 100 AT to hyl:
100 × 0.0029741726 = 0.2974172628 hyl
Real-world example — Body height conversion
You enter your height as 180 tons (assay) (us) into an international job or visa application. The form then asks for the same value in kilogram-force square second/meters — converting between these adjacent units is one of the most-used length conversions globally.
180 AT × 0.0029741726 = 0.535351073 hyl
Real-world example — Furniture and large objects
A 72-ton (assay) (us) piece of furniture converts to a value in kilogram-force square second/meters that's easier to mentally compare with room dimensions. This is the typical workflow when shopping internationally and product specs use a different unit than your room measurements.
72 AT × 0.0029741726 = 0.2141404292 hyl
Real-world example — Children's height milestones
A 150-ton (assay) (us)-tall child measures a value in kilogram-force square second/meters that's commonly used for theme-park ride height requirements when travelling between countries that use different measurement units.
150 AT × 0.0029741726 = 0.4461258942 hyl
