gross ton includes the weight of the container (tare). net tons are just the weight of the freight A gross tone is a Long ton (or English Ton) 2,240 lbs. A Net ton is a short ton or 2000 lbs
well there is no difference
1 pound = 0.000446428571 gross ton gross ton , 1 gross ton = 2240 pounds.
a ton is heavier than a kilogram
a short ton is 2000 pounds a long ton is 2240 pounds a metric ton (tonne) is 1,000 kilograms, which weighs 2,204.62 pounds on Earth.
1 quintal = 100 kg where as, 1 ton = 1000 kg.
well there is no difference
Gross tonnage is a technical term used to determine the size of a ship for legal reasonsA ton is a unit of measure weighing 2,000 pounds.This may also mean:TON: A ton of product + the weight of packaging.Gross Ton: Total weight of product and packaging.
To convert gross tonnage to net tonnage, you subtract the deduction of spaces from the gross tonnage value. This deduction typically includes non-cargo spaces like crew quarters, machinery spaces, and navigational equipment. The resulting value is the net tonnage of the vessel.
1 pound = 0.000446428571 gross ton gross ton , 1 gross ton = 2240 pounds.
a ton is heavier than a kilogram
There are 2,000 pounds in a net (short) ton.
The conversion is not a simple mathematical exercise. You need to know the mass of the container. For example, a truck with a load of 10 tons might have a mass of 12 tons - the additional 2 tons being the mass of the [empty] truck. In that case, the gross mass is 12 tons and the net mass is 10 tons.
Both the same but it is just a different way of spelling it
Oh, yes. A US ton is 2000 pounds. A metric ton is 2204.6 pounds.
Gross weight is the total weight of the packaging/vehicle and its contents when loaded, as opposed to either the tare weight (the empty package/vehicle) or the net weight (only that of the contents/load).
Ton/Short ton/Net ton: 2000 lbs (US and metric systems) Long ton/Gross Ton: 2240 lbs (US and metric systems) Tonne/Metric ton: 2250 lbs or 1000 kg (metric system only) +++ The "Long Ton" (2240lbs) is called simply the "Ton" here in the UK, where in fact the tonne (1000kg) is now the official unit for trade and technical purposes.
