About the surface tension converter

This converter handles 7 surface tension units. Enter a value in either field and the other updates instantly — there is no button to press and nothing to submit. Use the swap control to reverse the direction of the conversion.

All factors are stored against a single base unit (Newton/meter) and applied in one step, so converting A → B never accumulates rounding error from an intermediate hop.
