How to Convert Webers to Maxwells
To convert webers to maxwells, multiply the magnetic flux by the following conversion ratio: 100,000,000 maxwells/weber.
Since one weber is equal to 100,000,000 maxwells, you can use this simple formula to convert:
The magnetic flux in maxwells is equal to the magnetic flux in webers multiplied by 100,000,000.
For example, here's how to convert 10 webers to maxwells using the formula above.
How Many Maxwells Are in a Weber?
There are 100,000,000 maxwells in a weber, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
Our weber to maxwell calculator automatically converts your magnetic flux measurements with full decimal and scientific precision across US customary, imperial, and SI metric standards.
Webers and maxwells are both units used to measure magnetic flux. Keep reading to learn more about each unit.
What Is a Weber?
SI derived unit of magnetic flux (1 Wb = 1 V·s = 10⁸ Maxwells). It serves as a primary reference unit for measuring magnetic flux across scientific and practical applications. [1]
The weber is classified as an International System of Units (SI) unit of magnetic flux. Webers can be abbreviated as Wb; for example, 1 weber can be written as 1 Wb.
As the primary coherent reference unit for magnetic flux in this category, all other magnetic flux units are mathematically anchored to the weber (Wb).
In practice, webers (Wb) are widely used across standard magnetic flux applications within International System of Units (SI) workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.
What Is a Maxwell?
A maxwell is a unit of magnetic flux equal to 1/100,000,000 of a weber (0.00000001 Wb). CGS magnetic flux unit equal to 10⁻⁸ Webers. [2]
The maxwell is classified as a standard unit of magnetic flux. Maxwells can be abbreviated as Mx; for example, 1 maxwell can be written as 1 Mx.
When working with maxwells (Mx) in formulas or technical specifications, always verify whether your target system uses SI metric, US customary, or British imperial standards.
In practice, maxwells (Mx) are widely used across fine-tolerance laboratory, analytical, and micro-scale magnetic flux measurements within international standard workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.
When converting magnetic flux between webers (Wb) and maxwells (Mx), keep full floating-point precision (1 Wb = 100,000,000 Mx; 1 Mx = 0.00000001 Wb) during intermediate calculations and round only the final maxwell figure to match your instrument tolerance.
