Ton-Force (Short) Meter

tf·m (short)

Definition

The ton-force (short) meter is a unit of moment of force based on the short ton (2000 pounds) and meter. It is commonly used in American engineering applications for measuring large torques and moments.

History/Origin

This unit combines the short ton (US customary unit) with the meter (SI unit), providing a measure for large moment of force values in American engineering and construction applications.

Current Use

Used in American engineering, construction, and heavy machinery for measuring large torques, bending moments, and rotational forces in structural applications and industrial equipment.

Kilogram-Force Meter

kgf·m

Definition

The kilogram-force meter (kgf·m) is a unit of moment of force based on the gravitational force of one kilogram and meter. It is commonly used in engineering applications where gravitational force units are preferred.

History/Origin

This unit is based on the gravitational force of one kilogram, providing a measure for moment of force in gravitational systems commonly used in engineering and construction applications.

Current Use

Used in engineering, construction, and mechanical applications for measuring torques, bending moments, and rotational forces in systems where gravitational force units are preferred over SI units.
