Convert Kilogram-force metres to Dyne centimetres
Convert Kilogram-force metres (kgf·m) to Dyne centimetres (dyn·cm) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
dyn·cm = kgf·m × 98066500
About Kilogram-force metres
The kilogram-force metre (kgf·m) equals exactly 9.80665 N·m, used in pre-SI European and legacy Asian engineering. Soviet/Russian GOST standards, early JIS turbine and compressor specifications, and older DIN automotive standards listed torque in kgf·m. A car wheel bolt at 10 kgf·m ≈ 98.1 N·m. 1 kgf·m = 9.80665 N·m = 100 kgf·cm ≈ 7.233 lbf·ft ≈ 86.80 lbf·in.
About Dyne centimetres
The dyne centimetre (dyn·cm) is the CGS unit of torque, equal to 10⁻⁷ N·m. It represents 1 dyne of force applied at 1 cm from the axis. MEMS micro-actuator friction, watch escapement detent torques, and laboratory torsion-pendulum experiments are measured in dyn·cm. Pre-SI physics literature and precision galvanometer calibration reports used this unit. 1 dyn·cm = 10⁻⁷ N·m = 0.01 gf·mm = 0.001 gf·cm.
