Kilojoules per centimeter to kilojoules per millimeter

Type a value in kJ/cm to get it in kJ/mm instantly.

0.12kJ/mm

Nothing on our list is smaller: thin sheet welding is 2.5× higher. A 200 A, 25 V arc would have to travel about 2,000 mm a minute.

What it means

How much heat goes in?

Heat input is arc energy times a process efficiency: about 0.8 for stick and MIG, 0.6 for TIG, and 1.0 for submerged arc.

The math

How to convert kJ/cm to kJ/mm

To convert kilojoules per centimeter to kilojoules per millimeter, multiply by 0.1.

Example: 1.2 kJ/cm × 0.1 = 0.12 kJ/mm.

In the other direction, 1 kJ/mm = 10 kJ/cm.
