What are Pound-force Inch and Break

Definition of Pound-force Inch

A pound-force inch (lbf-in) is a unit of torque representing the force of one pound (lbf) acting at the end of a lever (moment arm) measured one inch in length. When this force is applied, it produces a moment or torque around an axis, which is essential in various mechanical and engineering applications. This measurement is particularly crucial when precise rotational force needs to be applied to components, such as in the tightening of bolts and screws.

Definition of Break

In mechanical terms, 'break' typically refers to the point at which a material or mechanical part fails after being subjected to stress or strain. It is the moment of failure under load, where the material or component cannot withstand the pressure, tension, or torque applied to it any longer. This definition is crucial for understanding material limitations and for designing systems that remain intact under expected loads.
