About Gram-force centimetres
The gram-force centimetre (gf·cm) equals 9.80665 × 10⁻⁵ N·m, the standard unit for small servo and hobby motor specifications. RC servo motor stall torques are quoted in gf·cm - a typical 9 g mini-servo delivers 1500-2000 gf·cm. Small stepper motors for 3D printers range 400-600 gf·cm; model train gearboxes around 200-800 gf·cm. 1 gf·cm = 9.80665 × 10⁻⁵ N·m = 10 gf·mm = 0.01 kgf·cm.
About Newton metres
The newton metre (N·m) is the SI coherent derived unit of torque and bending moment. Car engine torque is commonly quoted in N·m - a family hatchback delivers 150-250 N·m; a performance saloon 400-600 N·m. Fastener pre-load torques, EV traction-motor ratings, and structural connection bolt specifications are all given in N·m. 1 N·m = 100 N·cm = 1000 N·mm ≈ 0.7376 lbf·ft ≈ 8.851 lbf·in.
