440 gauss (440 G)

440 gauss equals 0.044 teslas, 44,000 microteslas, 44 milliteslas and 44,000,000 nanoteslas.

440 gauss = 0.044 teslas

What 440 gauss means in practice

440 gauss sits between a fridge magnet (50 G) and a strong neodymium magnet (12,500 G).

  • The human brain's magnetic field: 1 × 10-8 G
  • The Earth's magnetic field: 0.5 G
  • A fridge magnet: 50 G
  • A strong neodymium magnet: 12,500 G
  • A hospital MRI scanner: 30,000 G
  • The strongest continuous lab magnets: 450,000 G
  • A neutron star: 1,000,000,000,000 G
  • A magnetar: 1 × 1015 G

About the gauss

The gauss is the CGS unit of magnetic flux density, 1/10,000 of a tesla, named after Carl Friedrich Gauss. Read more about gauss.
