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.

Newton Meter (N·m)

The Newton meter is the SI unit for torque, representing the rotational force applied when one Newton of force is exerted at a perpendicular distance of one meter from a pivot point. It is widely used in physics, mechanical engineering, and automotive industries to measure twisting forces acting on mechanical components such as bolts, shafts, and axles.

Being the base unit in the metric system, the Newton meter is fundamental for expressing torque across scientific disciplines and is instrumental in machinery specifications, maintenance manuals, and engineering standards.
