What are Inch-pound and Gram-force centimeter

Definition of Inch-pound

An inch-pound (in-lb) is a unit of torque representing the force applied at a one-inch distance from the pivot point, measured in the imperial system. It quantifies the rotational force often used in engineering to ensure bolts and fasteners are properly tightened.

Definition of Gram-force centimeter

A gram-force centimeter (gf·cm) is a unit of torque within the metric system. It represents the rotational force exerted by a one gram-force acting at a radius of one centimeter from a pivot point. This unit is commonly used in fields such as mechanical engineering and physics.
