Newton Centimeter
N·cm
Definition
The newton centimeter (N·cm) is a metric unit of torque, equal to 0.01 newton meters. It represents the rotational force produced when a force of one newton is applied perpendicularly at a distance of one centimeter from the pivot point.
History/Origin
This unit is derived from the SI system as a convenient submultiple for smaller torque measurements. It was commonly used in engineering applications where centimeter-scale measurements were more practical than meter-scale measurements.
Current Use
Frequently used in precision engineering, small mechanical devices, and laboratory equipment where torque measurements are required at centimeter scales. It provides a practical unit for fine-tuned mechanical adjustments and small-scale applications.

Kilogram-Force Millimeter
kgf·mm
Definition
The kilogram-force millimeter (kgf·mm) is a gravitational metric unit of torque, equal to 0.00980665 newton meters. It represents the rotational force produced by one kilogram-force applied at one millimeter from the pivot point.
History/Origin
This unit was used in the technical system of units for very precise torque measurements at millimeter scales. It provided a practical unit for fine mechanical adjustments and precision work.
Current Use
Primarily found in older technical specifications and some specialized manufacturing applications where millimeter-scale precision is required and gravitational metric units are maintained.
