Factor1 t/hr = 1000 kg/hr

Converter

t/hr

Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7

Result
10000kg/hr

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
kg/hr = t/hr × 1000

Multiply any value in metric tonnes per hour by 1000 to obtain the value in kilograms per hour.

Worked example

Convert 10 t/hr to kg/hr.

  1. 01Start with 10 t/hr.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 10 × 1000 = 10000 kg/hr.
Result10 t/hr = 10000 kg/hr

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from t/hr to kg/hr?
1 t/hr equals 1000 kg/hr. To convert, multiply the value in metric tonnes per hour by 1000.
How do I convert 1 t/hr to kg/hr?
1 t/hr = 1000 kg/hr. For any value, multiply by 1000.
How do I convert kg/hr back to t/hr?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.001. So 1 kg/hr = 0.001 t/hr.
When would I need to convert metric tonne per hour to kilogram per hour?
Mass flow conversions between t/hr and kg/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).
