Gram-Force Centimeter
gf·cm
Definition
The gram-force centimeter (gf·cm) is a gravitational metric unit of torque, equal to 9.80665E-5 newton meters. It represents the rotational force produced by one gram-force applied at one centimeter from the pivot point.
History/Origin
This unit was commonly used in the CGS and technical systems for small-scale torque measurements in precision instruments and laboratory equipment. It provided a practical unit for fine mechanical work.
Current Use
Found in some specialized scientific instruments, older technical literature, and in fields where CGS or technical units are maintained for consistency with historical data and measurements.

Dyne Meter
dyn·m
Definition
The dyne meter (dyn·m) is a CGS unit of torque, equal to 1.0E-5 newton meters. It represents the rotational force produced when a force of one dyne is applied perpendicularly at a distance of one meter from the pivot point.
History/Origin
This unit was part of the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, which was widely used in scientific applications before the adoption of the SI system. It provided a smaller base unit for torque measurements in scientific research.
Current Use
Still found in some scientific literature and specialized research applications, particularly in physics and chemistry where CGS units are maintained for consistency with historical data and calculations.
