Gauss to Tesla Converter
Gauss to Tesla calculator converts magnetic field units with formula 1 Tesla = 10,000 or Tesla = Gauss ÷ 10,000 or Gauss = Tesla × 10,000.

Gauss to Tesla Formula
The conversion equation is expressed as:
Gauss (G) = Tesla (T) × 10,000
or
T = G × 10^-4
Converting a magnetic field strength of 25,000 gauss:
25,000 G × (1 T/10,000 G) = 2.5 T
How to Convert from Gauss to Tesla
- Start with your initial measurement in gauss
- Apply the conversion factor by dividing by 10,000
- Express the final result in tesla
Converting a field strength of 7,500 gauss:
7,500 G ÷ 10,000 = 0.75 T
- 1000 Gauss to Tesla: 1000 G × (1 T/10,000 G) = 0.1 T
- 5 Gauss to Tesla: 5 G × (1 T/10,000 G) = 0.0005 T
- 100 Gauss to Tesla: 100 G × (1 T/10,000 G) = 0.01 T
- 10 Gauss to Tesla: 10 G × (1 T/10,000 G) = 0.001 T
- 0.1 Gauss to Tesla: 0.1 G × (1 T/10,000 G) = 0.00001 T
What are Gauss and Tesla?
Gauss (G): Named after Carl Friedrich Gauss, this CGS unit remains popular in North American laboratories and older scientific documentation. Medical equipment specifications often reference gauss measurements.
Tesla (T): Honoring Nikola Tesla, this SI unit has become the international standard. For perspective, the Earth’s magnetic field measures between 25 and 65 microtesla (μT), while medical MRI machines generate much stronger fields of 1.5 to 3 tesla.
