What are Kilogram-force and Ounce-force

Definition of Kilogram-force

Kilogram-force (kgf) is a non-SI unit of force that represents the force exerted by gravity on one kilogram of mass. Essentially, it measures the weight of an object under Earth's gravitational pull. One kilogram-force is equivalent to 9.80665 newtons, the standard gravity value. Engineers and scientists often use kilogram-force in fields like mechanics and material science, where precise force calculations are essential. Despite the prevalence of the newton in scientific contexts, kilogram-force remains widely recognized, especially in countries that have traditionally used metric units.

Definition of Ounce-force

Ounce-force (ozf) is a unit of force that quantifies the force exerted by gravity on one ounce of mass. It is commonly used in countries employing the imperial system. An ounce-force measures the weight of an object under the influence of Earth's gravity. One ounce-force is approximately equal to 0.278 newtons. This unit is particularly useful in engineering and physics contexts where smaller force measurements are necessary. It provides a practical means of expressing force in applications such as tension testing and material strength assessments within imperial measurement frameworks.
