Gram-Force Meter

gf·m

Definition

The gram-force meter (gf·m) is a gravitational metric unit of torque, equal to 0.00980665 newton meters. It represents the rotational force produced by one gram-force applied at one meter from the pivot point.

History/Origin

This unit was part of the technical system of units, used for smaller torque measurements in scientific and engineering applications. It provided a practical unit for gram-scale force applications.

Current Use

Still found in some specialized scientific instruments and laboratory equipment where gram-force measurements are more practical than kilogram-force measurements for small-scale applications.

Ounce-Force Inch

ozf·in

Definition

The ounce-force inch (ozf·in) is an imperial unit of torque, equal to 0.007061552 newton meters. It represents the rotational force produced by one ounce-force applied at one inch from the pivot point.

History/Origin

This unit was commonly used in the US customary system for small-scale torque measurements in precision engineering and manufacturing. It provided a practical unit for inch-scale applications.

Current Use

Frequently used in precision manufacturing, small mechanical devices, and laboratory equipment where inch-scale measurements and ounce-force applications are standard in US engineering practice.
