How to Convert kgf·mm to Ounce-inches
To convert kgf·mm to ounce-inches, multiply the torque by the following conversion ratio: 1.3887387 ounce-inches/kilogram-force millimeter.
Since one kilogram-force millimeter is equal to 1.3887387 ounce-inches, you can use this simple formula to convert:
The torque in ounce-inches is equal to the torque in kgf·mm multiplied by 1.3887387.
For example, here's how to convert 5 kgf·mm to ounce-inches using the formula above.
How Many Ounce-inches Are in a Kilogram-force Millimeter?
There are 1.3887387 ounce-inches in a kilogram-force millimeter, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
Our kilogram-force millimeter to ounce-inch calculator automatically converts your torque measurements with full decimal and scientific precision across US customary, imperial, and SI metric standards.
kgf·mm and ounce-inches are both units used to measure torque. Keep reading to learn more about each unit.
What Is a Kilogram-force Millimeter?
A kilogram-force millimeter is a unit of torque equal to 0.0098067 newton-meters (N·m), the base unit for torque. Equal to 0.00980665 N·m. [1]
The kilogram-force millimeter is classified as a metric and SI-compatible unit of torque. kgf·mm can be abbreviated as kgf·mm; for example, 1 kilogram-force millimeter can be written as 1 kgf·mm.
In the metric system, "kilo" is the standard SI prefix for thousands, or 10³. This makes the kilogram-force millimeter (kgf·mm) a convenient decimal multiple of the newton-meter (N·m).
In practice, kgf·mm (kgf·mm) are widely used across fine-tolerance laboratory, analytical, and micro-scale torque measurements 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·mm (kgf·mm) and ounce-inches (oz·in), keep full floating-point precision (1 kgf·mm = 1.3887387 oz·in; 1 oz·in = 0.7200779 kgf·mm) during intermediate calculations and round only the final ounce-inch figure to match your instrument tolerance.
