Gauss to Teslas

Snapshot

1 Gauss equals 0.0001 Teslas. Conversion Encyclopedia uses the same fixed conversion basis across the calculator, common values, and reverse page for this page.

Reference basis: This conversion uses exact tesla-based magnetic flux density definitions.
Example: For 0.001 Gauss, the result equals 1e-7 Teslas.
Use the reverse page if you need the opposite direction with the same basis.

Explanation

This page answers the core magnetic-field conversion directly: 1 gauss equals 0.0001 tesla exactly. The relationship comes from the exact unit-system definition 1 tesla = 10,000 gauss, so reversing it gives 1 gauss = 10^-4 tesla.

Use this converter when a magnetic flux density value is given in gauss but you need teslas for SI-based engineering, physics, or sensor work. Because the relationship is exact, the same fixed factor applies cleanly across small values like 0.001 G and larger values like 1000 G without any offset.

Method & Reference

Method basis: exact conversion formula shown in Snapshot.
Applied factor: 1 Gauss = 0.0001 Teslas.
Consistency rule: calculator output and table values use the same constants and rounding policy.

Questions & answers

Frequently Asked Questions

How many teslas is 1 gauss?

1 gauss is exactly 0.0001 tesla.

Is 1 gauss equal to 10^-4 tesla?

Yes. 1 gauss equals exactly 10^-4 tesla, which is the same as 0.0001 T.

Why does 1 gauss equal 0.0001 tesla?

Because 1 tesla equals exactly 10,000 gauss. Dividing by 10,000 gives 1 gauss = 0.0001 tesla.

How many gauss are in 1 tesla?

There are exactly 10,000 gauss in 1 tesla.
