Conversion Formula
lbf·ft = kgf·cm × 0.07233013851
About Kilogram-force centimetres
The kilogram-force centimetre (kgf·cm) equals exactly 9.80665 × 10⁻² N·m, common in Continental European and Asian servo drive engineering. ABB, Siemens, and Yaskawa servo catalogs specify rotor and reflected-load torques in kgf·cm; IEC 61800 drive inertia-ratio sizing uses kgf·cm. Typical industrial servomotor stall torques: 0.1-50 kgf·cm. 1 kgf·cm = 0.0980665 N·m = 100 gf·cm ≈ 13.89 ozf·in.
About Pound-force feet
The pound-force foot (lbf·ft) equals ≈ 1.35582 N·m, the dominant torque unit in North American automotive and mechanical engineering. SAE engine performance tests, US vehicle lug-nut torque specs (80-100 lbf·ft), and American industrial gearbox catalogs all use lbf·ft. V8 truck engines produce 400-600 lbf·ft; diesel pickups exceed 900 lbf·ft. 1 lbf·ft ≈ 1.35582 N·m = 12 lbf·in ≈ 192 ozf·in.
