Units explained
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.
Stone (US)
A less common US definition of the stone, about 5.67 kilograms.
A variant stone weight used in some historical US trade.
Rare; appears mainly in historical or specialized contexts.
Derived from older English stone weights that varied by commodity.
