About the units

Newton centimeter (N⋅cm)

The newton centimeter (N⋅cm) is a unit of torque in the International System of Units (SI). One newton centimeter equals 0.01 newton meters (N⋅m).

Pound-force inch (lbf⋅in)

One twelfth of a pound-foot (≈ 0.113 N·m); used for small fasteners and bicycle components. One pound-force inch equals 0.112984829 newton meters (N⋅m).

Frequently asked questions

How many pound-inches are in one newton centimeter?

There are 0.08850745791 pound-inches in one newton centimeter, and this value is exact by definition.

How do I convert newton centimeters to pound-inches?

Multiply the number of newton centimeters by 0.08850745791. For example, 10 N⋅cm × 0.08850745791 = 0.8850745791 lbf⋅in.
