Description

Pound-Force Foot (lbf·ft)

The pound-force foot is a commonly used unit of torque in the imperial system. It describes the rotational effect of a one pound-force acting at a perpendicular distance of one foot from the axis of rotation. Equivalent to 1.355818 Newton meters, the lbf·ft is especially prominent in automotive applications, mechanical engineering, and home improvement tools in countries like the United States.

This unit is a standard in torque wrench readings and engine performance metrics, bridging real-world mechanical applications with imperial measurement conventions.

Kilonewton Meter (kN·m)

The kilonewton meter is a powerful unit of torque used for large-scale mechanical systems such as construction equipment, wind turbines, and heavy machinery. Equal to 1,000 Newton meters, this unit provides a standardized way to express high torque values where base units would be impractically large.

Engineers use the kN·m to calculate the force required to rotate heavy components, helping ensure structural integrity and safety across massive systems.
