Every unit below converts to every other one in the calculator. Values are relative to the base unit, the weber (Wb).
| Unit | Symbol | System | Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weber | Wb | SI | Base unit |
| Milliweber | mWb | SI | = 0.001 Wb |
| Microweber | µWb | SI | = 0.000001 Wb |
| Maxwell | Mx | CGS | = 1e-8 Wb |
| Kilomaxwell | kMx | CGS | = 0.00001 Wb |
Weber quick reference
| Weber | Maxwell |
|---|---|
| 1 Wb | = 100000000 Mx |
| 10 Wb | = 1000000000 Mx |
| 100 Wb | = 10000000000 Mx |
| 1000 Wb | = 100000000000 Mx |
Among the 5 magnetic flux units on this page, the smallest is the maxwell (Mx) and the largest is the weber (Wb).

About magnetic flux units
Magnetic flux is the total amount of magnetic field passing through an area. Its SI unit is the weber (Wb), equal to one volt second. A changing flux through a coil induces a voltage, which is how generators and transformers work.
Flux equals flux density times area: one weber is one tesla over one square meter. The CGS unit is the maxwell: 1 Mx is one gauss over one square centimeter, exactly 10⁻⁸ Wb, so 1 Wb = 100,000,000 Mx.
Frequently asked questions
- How many maxwells are in a weber?
- Exactly 100,000,000 (10⁸). One maxwell is 10⁻⁸ weber.
- What is the difference between magnetic flux and flux density?
- Flux (webers) is the total field through an area. Flux density (teslas) is flux per unit area. One tesla is one weber per square meter.
- How many maxwells are in one weber?
- One weber = 100000000 Mx (maxwells).
