RE: Long Tons
A long ton is a measurement weight equivalent to 2240 pounds (lbs). A short ton is 2000 lbs.
1 long ton is close to 1 metric ton = 1000 kg.
1 US barrel is 31.5 US gallons, or 4.21 cu. ft. This is a volume measurement, and for water this is about 0.12 long ton in weight (NOTES that this is for water only... for other materials , it depends on density or unit weight).
