Discover Newtum's precise Ton-force short sq. Foot to Ksi Converter, designed to simplify conversions between tf/ft² and ksi, sparking your curiosity to explore the tool's capabilities.
A ton-force, specifically a short ton-force, is a unit of force that equates to 2,000 pounds-force (lbf) within the Imperial and US customary systems. It's often used in industries such as engineering and construction to describe a large amount of force generated or sustained by machinery, structures, or materials.
Definition of ksiKsi is a unit of pressure and stress, representing a thousand pounds-force per square inch. It's widely used in materials science and engineering to quantify the tensile strength, yield strength, and overall stress that can be withstood by materials such as metals and alloys before deformation or failure occurs.

| 3 tf/ft² | 0.042 ksi |
| 4 tf/ft² | 0.056 ksi |
| 5 tf/ft² | 0.070 ksi |
| 6 tf/ft² | 0.084 ksi |
| 7 tf/ft² | 0.098 ksi |
| 8 tf/ft² | 0.112 ksi |
| 9 tf/ft² | 0.126 ksi |
| 10 tf/ft² | 0.140 ksi |
Example 1:
Convert 1 tf/ft² to ksi:
1 tf/ft² = 1 × 0.014 ksi = 0.014 ksi
Example 2:
Convert 5 tf/ft² to ksi:
5 tf/ft² = 5 × 0.014 ksi = 0.070 ksi
