Denier to tex converter
To convert denier to tex, divide by 9. So 150 denier is 16.67 tex, and 20 tex is 180 denier.
Type in either box; the other updates.
Formula
tex = denier ÷ 9 · denier = tex × 9
Denier is grams per 9,000 m and tex is grams per 1,000 m, so the same yarn always has 9 times more denier than tex.
Example: A 150D polyester filament: 150 ÷ 9 = 16.67 tex.
