Calculator by Toolsloft ↗Enter a hex code to convert
This tool converts a HEX color code to its RGB values for use in CSS, design files, or code. It accepts both 6-digit codes and 3-digit shorthand, with or without the leading hash. Paste a hex value and copy the rgb() result.
How this is calculated
Three-digit shorthand is expanded to six digits, then each pair of hex characters is read as a base-16 byte for red, green, and blue. Anything that is not three or six valid hex digits is rejected.
How to use
- Enter a hex color code, for example #3366cc or #abc.
- The RGB value appears below as you type.
- Copy the rgb() result into your CSS or code.
Examples
- #3366cc:
rgb(51, 102, 204) - #abc (shorthand):
rgb(170, 187, 204)
FAQ
- Do you support 3-digit hex codes?
- Yes. Shorthand like #abc is expanded to #aabbcc before converting, which is the same rule browsers use.
- Is the leading hash required?
- No. Both #3366cc and 3366cc work. The hash is stripped before parsing.
- Why did my conversion fail?
- The value must be exactly three or six hexadecimal digits (0 to 9 and a to f). Other characters or lengths are rejected.
