About the long ton and the kilogram

The long ton

The long ton (imperial ton) equals exactly 2,240 pounds, or 1,016.0469088 kg. It is the traditional British ton, still used in some UK and Commonwealth shipping and bulk-cargo contexts, and larger than both the US short ton and the metric tonne.

The kilogram

The kilogram (kg) is the SI base unit of mass. Since the 2019 redefinition it is defined by fixing the Planck constant to exactly 6.62607015 × 10⁻³⁴ J·s, replacing the old International Prototype Kilogram artifact. In everyday use, the kilogram is the global standard for body weight, groceries, and engineering specifications.
