How to Convert Ounce-inches to kgf·mm

To convert ounce-inches to kgf·mm, multiply the torque by the following conversion ratio: 0.7200779 kgf·mm/ounce-inch.

Since one ounce-inch is equal to 0.7200779 kgf·mm, you can use this simple formula to convert:

kgf·mm = ounce-inches × 0.7200779

The torque in kgf·mm is equal to the torque in ounce-inches multiplied by 0.7200779.

For example, here's how to convert 5 ounce-inches to kgf·mm using the formula above.

kgf·mm = (5 oz·in × 0.7200779) = 3.6003894 kgf·mm

How Many kgf·mm Are in an Ounce-inch?

There are 0.7200779 kgf·mm in an ounce-inch, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 oz·in = 0.7200779 kgf·mm|1 kgf·mm = 1.3887387 oz·in

Our ounce-inch to kilogram-force millimeter calculator automatically converts your torque measurements with full decimal and scientific precision across US customary, imperial, and SI metric standards.

Ounce-inches and kgf·mm are both units used to measure torque. Keep reading to learn more about each unit.

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). [1]

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.

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. [2]

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.

When converting torque between ounce-inches (oz·in) and kgf·mm (kgf·mm), keep full floating-point precision (1 oz·in = 0.7200779 kgf·mm; 1 kgf·mm = 1.3887387 oz·in) during intermediate calculations and round only the final kilogram-force millimeter figure to match your instrument tolerance.
