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.

Ounce-Force Foot

ozf·ft

Definition

The ounce-force foot (ozf·ft) is an imperial unit of torque, equal to 0.084738624 newton meters. It represents the rotational force produced by one ounce-force applied at one foot from the pivot point.

History/Origin

This unit was part of the US customary system for torque measurements in smaller applications. It provided a practical unit for ounce-scale force applications in engineering and manufacturing.

Current Use

Still used in some US engineering applications and manufacturing specifications where ounce-force measurements are more practical than pound-force measurements for smaller torque applications.
