Unveil the simplicity of converting Pound-force Inch to Kilopond Meter with our quick and accurate lbf·in to kp·m converter. Developed by Newtum, this tool ensures precise conversions, sparking your curiosity to explore more.
A Pound-force inch (lbf·in) is a unit of torque representing the force of one pound-force applied at the end of a lever (or radius) one inch long. It is commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom for various applications, such as engineering, automotive industries, and more.
Definition of Kilopond meterA Kilopond meter (kp·m) is a unit of torque within the metric system. It represents the torque generated by a force of one kilopond acting at a perpendicular distance of one meter from the pivot point. It is a traditional unit that is still used in some contexts for its simplicity.

Example 1:
convert 25 lbf·in to kp·m:
25 lbf·in = 25 × 0.0115212472 kp·m = 0.28803118 kp·m
Example 2:
convert 100 lbf·in to kp·m:
100 lbf·in = 100 × 0.0115212472 kp·m = 1.15212472 kp·m
The Pound-force Inch to Kilopond Meter Converter has roots in the historical use of pound-force and kilopond units for measuring torque. While the kilopond meter has been largely replaced by the newton meter in the metric system, the Pound-force inch remains a standard in Anglo-American contexts.
Discover the practicality of the lbf·in to kp·m converter as we delve into its real-world applications.
Example 1:
Convert 45 lbf·in to kp·m:
