Newton To Kip-force Converter

Effortlessly Convert N/mm² to ksi with Our Reliable Online Tool

Explore the seamless conversion from Newton square Millimeter to Kip-force square Inch with our accurate N/mm² to ksi online converter, designed to simplify your calculations.

What are Newton and Kip-force

A Newton, symbolized as 'N', is the SI unit of force. It is defined as the force necessary to provide a mass of one kilogram with an acceleration of one meter per second squared. Named after Sir Isaac Newton for his work on classical mechanics, one Newton is equivalent to 1 kg·m/s².

A Kip-force is a non-SI unit of force. It is primarily used in the United States in engineering and construction. One Kip-force is equivalent to 1000 pounds-force (lbf) and measures the amount of force that can cause a mass of 453.592 kilograms to accelerate by one foot per second squared.

History of Newton and Kip-force

The Newton square Millimeter to Kip-force square Inch Converter is a tool that emerged from the need to bridge metric and imperial units in engineering. The converter allows for quick and accurate conversions between the metric unit of pressure or stress, N/mm², and the imperial unit ksi, a derivative of the pound-force per square inch.
