Our kilogram-force centimeter to ounce-inch calculator automatically converts your torque measurements with full decimal and scientific precision across US customary, imperial, and SI metric standards.
kgf·cm and ounce-inches are both units used to measure torque. Keep reading to learn more about each unit.
What Is a Kilogram-force Centimeter?
A kilogram-force centimeter is a unit of torque equal to 0.0980665 newton-meters (N·m), the base unit for torque. Equal to 0.0980665 N·m, common for RC servos. [1]
The kilogram-force centimeter is classified as a metric and SI-compatible unit of torque. kgf·cm can be abbreviated as kgf·cm; for example, 1 kilogram-force centimeter can be written as 1 kgf·cm.
In the metric system, "kilo" is the standard SI prefix for thousands, or 10³. This makes the kilogram-force centimeter (kgf·cm) a convenient decimal multiple of the newton-meter (N·m).
In practice, kgf·cm (kgf·cm) are widely used across standard torque applications within SI metric workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.
What Is an Ounce-inch?
An ounce-inch is a unit of torque equal to 0.0070616 newton-meters (N·m), the base unit for torque. 1/16 of a pound-inch (0.0070616 N·m). [2]
The ounce-inch is classified as a US customary and imperial unit of torque. Ounce-inches can be abbreviated as oz·in; for example, 1 ounce-inch can be written as 1 oz·in.
When working with ounce-inches (oz·in) in formulas or technical specifications, always verify whether your target system uses SI metric, US customary, or British imperial standards.
In practice, ounce-inches (oz·in) are widely used across fine-tolerance laboratory, analytical, and micro-scale torque measurements within US customary and imperial workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.
When converting torque between kgf·cm (kgf·cm) and ounce-inches (oz·in), keep full floating-point precision (1 kgf·cm = 13.8873866 oz·in; 1 oz·in = 0.0720078 kgf·cm) during intermediate calculations and round only the final ounce-inch figure to match your instrument tolerance.
