About Gram square centimetres

The gram square centimetre (g·cm²) equals 10⁻⁷ kg·m², the dominant unit in small electric motor and servo motor catalogues. Maxon RE-series micromotors list rotor inertia from 0.1-10 g·cm²; stepper motors for 3D printers range 50-500 g·cm². Clockmaking and watch-movement analysis use g·cm² for balance-wheel inertia calculations. 1 g·cm² = 10⁻⁷ kg·m² = 0.01 kg·mm².

About Ounce square inches

The ounce square inch (oz·in²) equals ≈1.829 × 10⁻⁵ kg·m², used in US precision instrument engineering for light rotating components. Pre-metric American gyroscope gimbal assemblies and US MIL-SPEC instrument servo actuators cited inertia in oz·in²; NACA gyroscope test reports use oz·in² for small rotating elements. 1 oz·in² ≈1.829 × 10⁻⁵ kg·m² = 16 oz·in² per lb·in².
