To find out how many pounds in tons, multiply by the conversion factor or use the converter if the conversion is from US short tons. 1 Short Ton [US] = 2 000 Pounds 1 Long Ton [UK] = 2 240 Pounds 1 Metric Ton = 2 204.62262 Pounds.

The short ton (also known as net ton) equals to 2000 pounds and used in North America (United States and Canada), the long ton (also known as weight or gross ton) is used in the imperial system (UK ...
