Free glTF to OBJ Converter for Geometry Editing
The glTF to OBJ Converter lets you bring the geometry in a self-contained glTF file into an OBJ editing workflow. Export a static mesh with normals and available UVs, then build any required materials in your modeling tool.
- 100% free
- No signup required
- Unlimited
- Safety
Unlimited conversions, one file at a time. Up to 50 MB and 1 million imported triangles per file. Your model stays on your device and is processed locally.
glTF to OBJ Converter: Reference Models for Shape and Surface Detail
Use these GLB samples to think through shape and detail before converting your scene. They are reference assets rather than results from your own file.

glTF to OBJ Converter: Static Mesh Export
This route extracts an OBJ surface from glTF. It is intended for static geometry exchange, with available mesh attributes carried into the export.
Use an embedded glTF file
Choose a .gltf with embedded mesh buffers and images. A file that points to a separate BIN file or texture folder must be repackaged first.
Extract an OBJ mesh
Export mesh geometry, normals and available UV coordinates. Vertex colors, MTL files, texture images and animation are not exported.
Create a static mesh handoff
Use the exported OBJ independently of the glTF’s animation. Keep the source scene when the project needs further animated or scene-level edits.
A separate .obj download
Save the OBJ result from your browser and keep the .gltf source for further work. Conversion does not overwrite the original file.
glTF to OBJ Converter Benefits: Continued Modeling Outside the Scene
Pass geometry into a modeling workflow while retaining the glTF scene for material and animation work.
No account or credits needed
Choose your glTF file and save the OBJ result without signing in or using generation credits. Conversion and download are both included.
Your model stays on your device
Your .gltf is processed on your device. Creating the .obj download does not send model data to a conversion server.
Choose a geometry-focused handoff
This OBJ gives a collaborator a mesh to edit when they do not need the scene’s animation or material setup. Keep the glTF for later scene work.
Plan the material handoff separately
The OBJ supplies geometry from glTF. Keep any original surface references available when you or a collaborator rebuild the materials.
glTF to OBJ Converter for shape changes, topology work and texture preparation
Use the converted file in your own modeling workflow. The examples below cover shape changes and surface preparation after the download.
Edit the geometry inside a glTF scene
Extract a static OBJ mesh from embedded glTF for modeling and geometry cleanup. Use available normals and UV coordinates as a starting point for further editing.
Revise scene-object proportions
Open the extracted OBJ in a modeling tool to change the shape of a mesh previously delivered as embedded glTF.
Prepare a new surface treatment
Review the mesh’s available UVs and rebuild materials for a different visual treatment, keeping the source scene for reference.
Prepare a static reference asset
Share the OBJ with someone rebuilding the form in a mesh editor when animated scene behavior is irrelevant to the modeling task.
