Ton (assay) (US)

What is a ton (assay) (us)?

The assay ton (US) equals about 29.167 grams, a mining-assay convenience unit.

Origin of the ton (assay) (us)

Devised so an assay sample's metal in milligrams reads as troy ounces per short ton.

Where it is used

Ore assaying and metallurgy.

When and where it was developed

Adopted in assay laboratories to simplify ore-grade calculation.

Indian / South Asian

Masha

What is a masha?

The masha equals about 0.972 gram, or eight ratti.

Origin of the masha

A traditional Indian mass unit in the ratti-masha-tola chain.

Where it is used

Small jewelry and gemstone weights in South Asia.

When and where it was developed

Part of the ancient Indian weight system dating to the Indus Valley era.

Ton (assay) (US) to Masha conversion formula

Note: this conversion uses a generally accepted modern value. Historical and regional definitions of this unit varied across times and places.

The relationship between tons (assay) (us) and mashas:

1 AT = 30.0073653499 masha
1 masha = 0.0333251516 AT

To convert tons (assay) (us) to mashas, multiply the value in tons (assay) (us) by 30.0073653499. To reverse, multiply mashas by 0.0333251516.

How to use this converter

Type a value into the calculator. The result in mashas updates as you type. Tap a quick value, copy the result with one click, or use the swap arrow to jump straight to the Masha to Ton (assay) (US) converter for the reverse direction.

Step-by-step: convert tons (assay) (us) to mashas

  1. Write down the value in tons (assay) (us) (AT).
  2. Multiply that value by the factor 30.0073653499.
  3. The product is the equivalent value in mashas (masha).
  4. To reverse, multiply the masha value by 0.0333251516.

Worked examples

Example 1 — Convert 1 AT to masha:
1 × 30.0073653499 = 30.0073653499 masha

Example 2 — Convert 100 AT to masha:
100 × 30.0073653499 = 3000.7365349851 masha

Real-world example — Adjacent small-scale precision

One ton (assay) (us) equals 1,000 mashas — the standard sub-millimeter precision conversion that materials engineers use whenever they switch between bulk material thickness specs (larger unit) and surface-finish characteristics (smaller unit).

1 AT × 30.0073653499 = 30.0073653499 masha

Real-world example — Adjacent metric sub-units

One ton (assay) (us) equals 1,000 mashas. Engineers move between these scales constantly: PCB feature sizes in the larger unit, wire-bond diameters in the smaller.

1 AT × 30.0073653499 = 30.0073653499 masha
