Discover the ease of converting pound-force feet to ergs with our intuitive tool. Developed by Newtum, this converter sparks curiosity and revolutionizes unit conversion.
A pound-force foot (lbf-ft) is a unit of torque or rotational force in the Imperial and US customary systems. It represents the torque created by one pound-force acting at a perpendicular distance of one foot from a pivot point.
Definition of ErgAn erg is a unit of energy or work in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It is equivalent to the amount of work done by a force of one dyne exerted over a distance of one centimeter.

1 lbf-ft = 13558179.5 erg
1 erg = 0.000000073756 lbf-ft
Example 1:
Convert 1 lbf-ft to erg:
1 lbf-ft = 1 × 13558179.5 erg = 13558179.5 erg
Example 2:
Convert 2 lbf-ft to erg:
2 lbf-ft = 2 × 13558179.5 erg = 27116359 erg
The pound-force foot to erg converter has its roots in the need to reconcile two different systems of measurement: the Imperial system and the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system. This converter serves as a critical tool for scientists, engineers, and technicians working across disciplines that require precision in energy and torque calculations.
Uncover the practical applications of converting pound-force feet to ergs in real-world scenarios.
Example 1:
To convert 5 lbf-ft to ergs:
5 lbf-ft = 5 × 13558179.5 erg = 67790897.5 erg
