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.
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.
