What are Kilogram-force sq. Cm and Newton square Centimeter

Definition of Kilogram-force sq. Cm

A Kilogram-force per square centimeter (kgf/cm²) is a unit of pressure. It represents the pressure generated by a one kilogram-force acting on a one square centimeter area. This traditional unit is widely used in engineering and physics to express pressure levels in a variety of contexts, such as material testing and tire pressure measurements.

Definition of Newton square Centimeter

A Newton per square centimeter (N/cm²) is a metric unit of pressure that denotes the force of one Newton being applied to an area of one square centimeter. This unit is a part of the International System of Units (SI) and is commonly used in scientific and engineering fields to quantify stress, tensile strength, and other pressure-related parameters.
