W/m·K to BTU/h·ft·°F
1 W/m·K = 0.577789 BTU/h·ft·°F
Insulation and building materials are specified in W/m·K almost everywhere and in BTU/h·ft·°F in the US, so comparing an imported product against a local code means converting first. Lower is better for insulation: mineral wool sits near 0.04 W/m·K, concrete near 1.7.

About Unit Converter
A unit converter changes a measurement from one unit to another. Pick a category — length, weight, temperature, data, area, speed, and 75+ more, including engineering and scientific units like pressure, torque, and viscosity — enter a value, and get an accurate conversion instantly. It runs in your browser with no sign-up and nothing to install.
Frequently asked questions
- How many unit categories are supported?
- Over 75, from everyday units (length, mass, temperature, volume, area, speed, data storage) to technical and scientific ones (energy, pressure, torque, viscosity, molar concentration, luminance, and more).
- Does it convert engineering and scientific units?
- Yes. Alongside common units it covers engineering and scientific categories — force, pressure, torque, thermal, flow, radiology, and CSS/typography units — with precise conversion factors.
- Are the conversions accurate?
- Yes. Conversions use standard factors and precise formulas, including non-linear ones like temperature, so results are exact.
- Do I need to install an app?
- No download needed — it's a free web app that runs in any modern browser on phone, tablet, or desktop, with nothing to install and nothing sent anywhere.
