Centistokes to Stokes
Convert centistokes to stokes (cSt to St). 1 cSt = 0.01 St. Use the calculator, formula and conversion table.
How to convert centistokes to stokes
Multiply the amount in centistokes by 0.01 to get stokes. The displayed factor and results are rounded to 12 significant digits.
St = cSt × 0.01Worked example
1 cSt = 0.01 St. Change the amount in the calculator above to use your own value.
Units and assumptions
Uses square metres per second. One centistokes is 1 mm²/s, and one stokes is 1 cm²/s. Dynamic viscosity is a different quantity and needs density to convert between the two. Values are rounded to 12 significant figures for display.
Calculator results use floating-point arithmetic and are rounded for display. The reference table below uses up to 12 significant digits.
