FAQ

How many kilogram-force meters are in one newton-meter?

1 N·m = 0.101972 kgf·m. The factor comes from the SI definitions of both units (NIST SP 811 / BIPM), so it is exact or correct to at least 10 significant figures.

What is the formula to convert newton-meters to kilogram-force meters?

Multiply the value in newton-meters by 0.1019716213: kilogram-force meters = newton-meters × 0.1019716213. For example, 5 N·m = 0.509858 kgf·m.

How do I convert kilogram-force meters back to newton-meters?

Multiply by the inverse factor 9.80665 (newton-meters = kilogram-force meters × 9.80665), or use the kilogram-force meters-to-newton-meters page.
