130 °C to Fahrenheit
130 °C = 266 °F
Not quite 275 °F, but recipes round it there. In recipes: 275 °F. Fan oven: 110 °C. Gas mark ½. Typically used for drying meringues, slow-roasting and low-temperature custards.
Fan (convection) ovens run hotter at the same setting, so recipes usually drop the temperature by about 20 °C (25 °F).

Exact: 130.0 °C = 266.0 °F. Recipes round to the nearest 5 or 10 degrees, and so do oven dials.
How it’s calculated
130 × 9 ÷ 5 + 32 = 266.00 °F.
If your oven is a fan or convection model, lower the setting by about 20 °C, or keep it and start checking 5–10 minutes early.
