Enter a stokes value to calculate centistokes with full internal precision before display rounding.
Auto trims unnecessary zeroes and uses scientific notation for extreme magnitudes. Use Digits to set the display precision; calculations retain full precision.

SI symbols follow international notation. U.S. and Imperial measures are labelled separately where their values differ.
Stokes (St) and centistokes (cSt) are units of kinematic viscosity. Use this page to convert in either direction.
| Stokes (St) | Centistokes (cSt) |
|---|---|
| 1 St | 100 cSt |
| 5 St | 500 cSt |
| 10 St | 1000 cSt |
| 100 St | 10000 cSt |
Examples are rounded to 6 significant digits. The interactive converter retains full calculation precision; change Display Precision to see more digits.
