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.

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.
