Frequently Asked Questions

Torque is a measure of rotational force that causes an object to rotate about an axis. It's commonly measured in Newton-meters (N⋅m) in the SI system or pound-force-feet (lbf⋅ft) in the imperial system.

Simply enter the torque value you want to convert in the "From" field, select the current unit, then choose the unit you want to convert to. The result will appear instantly in the "To" field.

Our torque converter supports 5 different units: Newton-meter (N⋅m), pound-force-foot (lbf⋅ft), pound-force-inch (lbf⋅in), kilogram-force-meter (kgf⋅m), and dyne-centimeter (dy⋅cm).

Understanding Torque and Its Applications

What is Torque?

Torque is the rotational equivalent of linear force. It's what causes an object to rotate around an axis or pivot point. In physics, torque is defined as the product of force and the perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation to the line of action of the force.

Common Torque Units
  • Newton-meter (N⋅m): The SI unit of torque
  • Pound-force-foot (lbf⋅ft): Common in US engineering
  • Pound-force-inch (lbf⋅in): Used for smaller applications
  • Kilogram-force-meter (kgf⋅m): Metric gravitational unit
  • Dyne-centimeter (dy⋅cm): Used in scientific contexts
Real-World Applications

Torque is everywhere in our daily lives. When you use a wrench to tighten a bolt, you're applying torque. Your car engine produces torque to turn the wheels. Even opening a door involves applying torque to the door hinges.

Why Accurate Conversion Matters

In engineering and mechanics, precise torque measurements are crucial. Over-tightening can damage components, while under-tightening can lead to failures. Our torque converter ensures you get accurate conversions every time.
