Convert chain (US survey) to terameter
Please provide values below to convert chain (US survey) [ch (US)] to terameter [Tm], or Convert terameter to chain (US survey).
1 ch (US) = 2.0117e-11 Tm. To convert chain (US survey) to terameter, multiply the value by 2.0117e-11; to go the other way, divide by it (1 Tm = 49709595959.5 ch (US)). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 ch (US) = 2.0117e-11 Tm
- 1 Tm = 49709595959.5 ch (US)
- 10 ch (US) = 2.0117e-10 Tm
- 100 ch (US) = 2.01168402337e-09 Tm
How to Convert Chain (Us Survey) to Terameter
1 ch (US) = 2.01168402337e-11 Tm
Example: convert 15 ch (US) to Tm:
15 ch (US) = 15 × 2.01168402337e-11 Tm = 3.017526035055e-10 Tm

Chain (Us Survey)
A U.S. survey chain is a unit of length equal to 66 U.S. survey feet.
History/Origin
The U.S. survey chain is based on the U.S. survey foot, which was slightly different from the international foot. The use of survey units was officially phased out in 2022.
Current Use
The U.S. survey chain was used for land surveying in the United States.
Terameter
A terameter is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10^12 meters.
History/Origin
The prefix "tera-" for 10^12 was adopted by the CGPM (General Conference on Weights and Measures) in 1960.
Current Use
The terameter is used for measuring distances within our solar system, such as the distances of outer planets from the Sun.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 chain (US survey) in terameter?
1 chain (US survey) (ch (US)) = 2.0117e-11 terameter (Tm).
How do you convert chain (US survey) to terameter?
