Common Weight Conversions Metric Weight Conversions Unit Definition (fother [lead]) The fother is a traditional English unit of weight for lead. The fother, equal to 30 fotmals, was always a little smaller than a (long) ton. The original version seems to have been equivalent to 2160 avoirdupois pounds, and the version still being used in the nineteenth century was equal to 19.5 hundredweight or 2184 pounds. Unit Definition (pund [Scandinavia]) The pund is the Scandinavian pound, now reinterpreted as a metric unit equal to 500 grams (1.1023 pounds), like the German pfund. The traditional Swedish (Stockholm) pund was equal to about 425.1 grams (14.995 ounces).
