Watt-second To Pound-force inch Converter

Effortlessly Convert Energy to Torque: Ws to lbf·in

Unveil the simplicity of converting watt-seconds to pound-force inches with our intuitive tool, making energy to torque calculations seamless.

What are Watt-second and Pound-force inch

A watt-second (Ws) is a derived unit of energy equivalent to the work done by a one-watt power source acting for one second. It's a measure of energy in the International System of Units, expressing the amount of work performed or heat transferred over time.

A pound-force inch (lbf·in) is a unit of torque (rotational force) in the Imperial and US customary systems. It represents the torque resulting from a one-pound force applied at a radius of one inch from the pivot point.

History of Watt-second and Pound-force inch

The Watt-second to Pound-force Inch Converter has its roots in the need to bridge two different measurement systems: the International System of Units (SI) and the Imperial system. By converting watt-seconds (Ws) to pound-force inches (lbf·in), it enables professionals and enthusiasts in fields such as engineering and physics to translate energy into torque seamlessly.
