Embark on a seamless conversion journey from gf·m to pdl·ft with Newtum's intuitive Gram-force Meter to Poundal Foot Converter, designed to cater to your precise measurement needs.
A gram-force meter (gf·m) is a unit of torque or rotational force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system. It represents the torque generated by one gram-force acting on a one-meter lever arm. Essentially, it quantifies the twisting or turning force applied to an object, pivotal in various engineering applications.
Definition of Poundal footA poundal foot (pdl·ft) is a unit of torque in the foot-poundal system, primarily used in some fields of engineering and physics. It is the torque or rotational force created by one poundal acting on a lever arm of one foot in length, where a poundal is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system.
