Convert dekagram to ton (assay) (US)
Please provide values below to convert dekagram [dag] to ton (assay) (US) [AT (US)], or Convert ton (assay) (US) to dekagram.
1 dag = 0.342857142857 AT (US). To convert dekagram to ton (assay) (US), multiply the value by 0.342857142857; to go the other way, divide by it (1 AT (US) = 2.91666666667 dag). Both units measure weight and mass and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 dag = 0.342857142857 AT (US)
- 1 AT (US) = 2.91666666667 dag
- 10 dag = 3.42857142857 AT (US)

Dekagram
A dekagram (dag) is a unit of mass equal to ten grams.
History/Origin
The dekagram was introduced as part of the metric system to simplify conversions within the metric units of mass, particularly in the context of grams and kilograms, and has been used primarily in countries adopting the metric system since the 19th century.
Current Use
Dekagrams are used in various fields such as cooking, jewelry, and scientific measurements, especially in regions where the metric system is standard, although grams and kilograms are more commonly used globally.
Ton (Assay) (Us)
The ton (assay) (US), symbolized as AT (US), is a unit of weight used primarily in the assay and precious metals industry, equivalent to 31.1034768 grams.
History/Origin
The assay ton originated in the United States as a standardized measure for precious metal content in assays, aligning with the metric system but retaining the traditional 'ton' terminology for industry consistency.
Current Use
Today, the assay ton (AT US) is used mainly in the precious metals industry for assay purposes, especially in the context of gold and silver purity measurements, and is part of weight and mass conversions within the 'Common Converters' category.
