A Pound-force foot (lbf-ft) is a unit of torque or moment of force in the Imperial and US customary systems. It represents the rotational force generated by one pound-force acting on a one-foot lever arm.
Definition of Kilogram-force-centimeterA Kilogram-force centimeter (kgf-cm) is a unit of torque within the metric system. It signifies the twisting force generated when a kilogram-force is applied perpendicularly to a one-centimeter lever arm.
