What is a pole?
The pole belongs to the imperial and US customary family of length units, the system built on inches, feet, yards, and miles. One pole equals 5.0292 meters, so every conversion on this page starts from that single number.
These units grew out of everyday measuring — paces, ropes, plow lengths, and body parts — so they do not line up in tens the way metric units do. That is exactly why a conversion table is useful, and you will find one for poles below.
