Converting from Kilogram per Square Millimeter (kgf/mm²) to Newton per Square Millimeter (N/mm²)

What is Kilogram per Square Millimeter (kgf/mm²)

1 kgf/mm² is a unit of pressure in the metric system. It represents the force of 1 kilogram-force applied over a square millimeter area.

What is Newton per Square Millimeter (N/mm²)

1 N/mm² is also a unit of pressure in the metric system. It represents the force of 1 Newton applied over a square millimeter area.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion between kilogram-force per square millimeter (kgf/mm²) and Newton per square millimeter (N/mm²) can be done using the following formulas:

1. To convert from kgf/mm² to N/mm²:

N/mm²=kgf/mm²×9.80665

2. To convert from N/mm² to kgf/mm²:

kgf/mm²=9.80665N/mm²​

Examples

1. Converting 5 kgf/mm² to N/mm²:

5 kgf/mm²=5×9.80665=49.03325 N/mm²

2. Converting 16 N/mm² to kgf/mm²:

16 N/mm²=9.8066516​=1.631546 kgf/mm²
