Discover the ease of converting kgf·s²/m to slug with our precise tool. Developed by Newtum, this page offers a straightforward solution for your conversion needs.
A kilogram-force square second per meter (kgf·s²/m) is a unit of moment of inertia. It represents the torque needed to accelerate 1 kilogram mass to an angular acceleration of one radian per second squared at a radius of one meter.
Definition of SlugA slug is a unit of mass in the Imperial system, primarily used in the US. It is defined as the mass that accelerates by 1 ft/s² when a force of one pound-force (lbf) is exerted on it. Historically, it's closely associated with Newton's second law of motion.

| 0.7 kgf·s²/m | 0.01694 slug |
| 0.8 kgf·s²/m | 0.01936 slug |
| 0.9 kgf·s²/m | 0.02178 slug |
| 1.0 kgf·s²/m | 0.02420 slug |
Example 1:
Convert 2 kgf·s²/m to slug:
2 kgf·s²/m = 2 × 0.00242 slug = 0.00484 slug
Example 2:
Convert 5 kgf·s²/m to slug:
5 kgf·s²/m = 5 × 0.00242 slug = 0.01210 slug
The Kilogram-force Square Second meter to Slug Converter has roots in classical mechanics. It bridges the gap between the metric system's kgf·s²/m and the imperial slug, facilitating calculations in various engineering fields.
