Foot-Pound Force (ft lbf) to Kilonewton Meter (kN·m) converter

Converting from Foot-Pound Force (ft lbf) to Kilonewton Meter (kN•m) in Torque

What is Foot-Pound Force (ft lbf)

Foot-Pound Force (ft lbf) is a unit of torque, commonly used in the United States, to measure the amount of rotational force applied to an object. One foot-pound force is equal to the amount of force required to move one pound a distance of one foot.

What is Kilonewton Meter (kN•m)

Kilonewton Meter (kN•m) is the metric unit of torque used in many countries around the world. One kilonewton meter is equal to the torque produced by one kilonewton force applied at a distance of one meter from a pivot point.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from Foot-Pound Force (ft lbf) to Kilonewton Meter (kN•m), you can use the following formula:

kN•m=ft lbf×0.001355818

To convert from Kilonewton Meter (kN•m) to Foot-Pound Force (ft lbf), you can use the formula:

ft lbf=kN•m×737.5621

Examples

  1. Converting 6 ft lbf to kN•m:

6 ft lbf=6×0.001355818=0.008134908 kN•m

  1. Converting 14 ft lbf to kN•m:

14 ft lbf=14×0.001355818=0.01898145 kN•m

  1. Converting 16 ft lbf to kN•m:

16 ft lbf=16×0.001355818=0.02169309 kN•m
