Kilogram-Force Centimeter
kgf·cm
Definition
The kilogram-force centimeter (kgf·cm) is a gravitational metric unit of torque, equal to 0.0980665 newton meters. It represents the rotational force produced by one kilogram-force applied at one centimeter from the pivot point.
History/Origin
This unit was commonly used in the technical system of units for smaller torque measurements. It provided a practical unit for centimeter-scale applications in engineering and manufacturing.
Current Use
Still found in some industrial contexts and older technical specifications, particularly in countries with a history of using gravitational metric units for engineering applications.

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.
