Conversion Formula
dyn·cm = N·mm × 10000
About Newton millimetres
The newton millimetre (N·mm) equals 10⁻³ N·m, widely used in mechanical engineering and FEA software. ANSYS, Abaqus, and Siemens NX models built in millimetres report torques in N·mm for dimensional consistency. Fastener torque for M3-M6 screws (typically 0.3-5 N·m range), micro-pump impeller loads, and precision gearbox calibration values are expressed in N·mm. 1 N·mm = 10⁻³ N·m = 0.1 N·cm ≈ 8.851 × 10⁻³ 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.
