Newton Millimeter

N·mm

Definition

The newton millimeter (N·mm) is a metric unit of torque, equal to 0.001 newton meters. It represents the rotational force produced when a force of one newton is applied perpendicularly at a distance of one millimeter from the pivot point.

History/Origin

This unit was developed as a submultiple of the newton meter for very precise torque measurements. It became important in precision engineering and manufacturing where millimeter-scale measurements are standard.

Current Use

Commonly used in precision manufacturing, micro-mechanics, and laboratory instruments where very small torque values need to be measured accurately. It is essential for fine mechanical adjustments and precision assembly work.

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.
