Formula
Formula
lb/hr = g/min × 0.1322774
Multiply any value in grams per minute by 0.1322774 to obtain the value in pounds per hour.
Worked example
Convert 1000 g/min to lb/hr.
- 01Start with 1000 g/min.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1000 × 0.1322774 = 132.277 lb/hr.
Result1000 g/min = 132.277 lb/hr

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from g/min to lb/hr?
1 g/min equals 0.1322774 lb/hr. To convert, multiply the value in grams per minute by 0.1322774.
How do I convert 1 g/min to lb/hr?
1 g/min = 0.132277 lb/hr. For any value, multiply by 0.1322774.
How do I convert lb/hr back to g/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 7.559873. So 1 lb/hr = 7.55987 g/min.
When would I need to convert gram per minute to pound per hour?
Mass flow conversions between g/min and lb/hr are common in material balances, process stream summaries, bulk solids handling, custody transfer, and equipment sizing where kg/hr, t/hr, lb/hr, and lb/s may all appear in different datasheets or vendor documents.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
