Torque Unit Converter

To perform conversion between various torque units, start by selecting the original unit using the “From:” drop-down list and the target unit from the “To:” drop-down list. Then enter the original value into the input field on the left. The tool will instantly display the converted value at the top of the page.  

This converter supports the following Torque  or Moment of Force units of measure:

Newton Meter (N · m):

• The newton meter is the standard unit of torque or moment of force in the International System of Units (SI). It represents the force of one newton applied at a distance of one meter from the axis of rotation.

Dyne Centimeter (dyn · cm):

• The dyne centimeter is a unit of torque or moment of force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system. It represents a force of one dyne applied at a distance of one centimeter from the axis of rotation.
• Conversion to Newton meter (N · m): 1 dyn · cm = 1 x 10^-7 N · m

Kilogram-Force Meter (kgf · m):

• The kilogram-force meter is a unit of torque in the kilogram-force system. It represents the torque produced when a force of one kilogram-force is applied at a distance of one meter from the axis of rotation.
• Conversion to Newton meter (N · m): 1 kgf · m = 9.80665 N · m

Pound-Force Inch (lbf · in):

• The pound-force inch is a unit of torque in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system. It represents the torque produced when a force of one pound-force is applied at a distance of one inch from the axis of rotation.
• Conversion to Newton meter (N · m): 1 lbf · in = 0.1129848 N · m

Pound-Force Foot (lbf · ft):

• The pound-force foot is a unit of torque in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system. It represents the torque produced when a force of one pound-force is applied at a distance of one foot from the axis of rotation.
• Conversion to Newton meter (N · m): 1 lbf · ft = 1.355818 N · m
