Ounces to Grams Converter

Ounces are used in some recipes, postal services and product labels, while grams are common in metric measurements. This converter uses the everyday avoirdupois ounce, which equals exactly 28.349523125 grams. It does not use the troy ounce used for precious metals.

Tips

• One ounce is about 28.35 grams; multiplying ounces by 28.35 gives a handy estimate.
• Fluid ounces measure volume, not mass, and cannot be converted to grams without knowing the substance's density.

• Converts mass, not force. The result is the same on Earth or on the Moon.
• Pounds and ounces are avoirdupois units. Troy ounces and the UK stone are not supported.
• The ton is the metric ton (1,000 kg), not the US short ton or the UK long ton.
• Results show up to 6 decimal places. Values are not rounded during calculation, and a non-zero result that would display as 0 is shown in scientific notation.
