Short Ton

Manufacturing Term


A short ton is a unit of weight measurement used primarily in the United States. It is defined as 2,000 pounds and is also known as a net ton or a US ton.

In the manufacturing industry, short tons are commonly used to measure the weight of bulk materials and commodities, such as steel, coal, and grains. These materials are often transported in large quantities and need to be accurately weighed for sale and distribution.

Short tons are also used in manufacturing processes, such as casting and forging, to determine the weight of raw materials and finished products. This allows manufacturers to calculate their material requirements and estimate production costs more accurately.

Overall, the use of short tons in the manufacturing industry is essential in ensuring the accuracy and precision of material weights, leading to more efficient and cost-effective production processes.
