Convert Gram-force metres to Newton metres
Convert Gram-force metres (gf·m) to Newton metres (N·m) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
N·m = gf·m × 0.00980665
About Gram-force metres
The gram-force metre (gf·m) equals 9.80665 × 10⁻³ N·m, used in scientific torsion and balance instrument calibration. Analytical balance torsion spring constants, laser-gyroscope gimbal friction torques, and lightweight UAV propeller starting torques are expressed in gf·m. It bridges gf·cm and N·m in laboratory-scale rotating experiments. 1 gf·m = 9.80665 × 10⁻³ N·m = 100 gf·cm = 0.001 kgf·m.
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.
