Units explained
Point (1/100 carat)
A point equals one-hundredth of a carat, or 2 milligrams.
A subdivision of the metric carat for very small stones.
The diamond trade, for sub-carat stones.
Adopted alongside the metric carat in the 20th-century gem trade.
Kilogram
The kilogram (kg) is the SI base unit of mass, defined by fixing the Planck constant h at 6.62607015E-34 J s.
From Greek 'khilioi' (thousand) plus 'gramma' (small weight).
The worldwide base unit of mass in science, commerce, and everyday life.
Adopted in 1795; redefined through the Planck constant on 20 May 2019.
Point (1/100 carat) to Kilogram conversion formula
The relationship between points (1/100 carat) and kilograms:
To convert points (1/100 carat) to kilograms, multiply the value in points (1/100 carat) by 2e-6. To reverse, multiply kilograms by 500000.

- The product is the equivalent value in kilograms (kg).
- To reverse, multiply the kilogram value by 500000.
Worked examples
Example 1 — Convert 1 pt to kg:
1 × 2e-6 = 2e-6 kg
Example 2 — Convert 100 pt to kg:
100 × 2e-6 = 0.0002 kg
Real-world example — Macro-scale buildup
A million points (1/100 carat) equals exactly one kilogram — the conversion that bridges microscale features and macroscale objects in microfluidic, biomedical, and semiconductor packaging design.
1000000 pt × 2e-6 = 2 kg
Real-world example — Quarter-meter measurement reference
A 250,000-point (1/100 carat) length equals 0.25 kilograms — useful for comparing supply-chain spec sheets where some lengths are quoted in the smaller unit and some in the larger.
250000 pt × 2e-6 = 0.5 kg
Real-world example — From microscopic to macroscopic
A million points (1/100 carat) equals exactly one kilogram. This kind of conversion appears in microfluidics, where total channel length is given in kilograms but feature widths are in points (1/100 carat).
1000000 pt × 2e-6 = 2 kg
