Common Weight Conversions Metric Weight Conversions Unit Definition (technische mass einheit (TME)) The technische mass einheit (TME) is a German abbreviation for Technische Mass Einheit (engineering mass unit). One TME is the mass accelerated at 1 m/s2 by a force of 1 kgf. One TME is equal to 9.80665 kilograms or 21.6200 pounds. This unit is sometimes called the metric slug in English, since the slug is defined in a similar way in the English system. Unit Definition (tahil [China]) The tahil is a traditional unit of weight used throughout eastern Asia. During the colonial period, the tahil was more or less standardized throughout the region at 4/3 ounce avoirdupois (1/16 catty, 1/12 pound, or about 37.8 grams). In Japan, however, the tahil was identified with a slightly smaller traditional unit and is considered equal to 1.323 ounces (37.51 grams). The tahil is usually considered equal to the Chinese liang.
