Torque is rotational force: a force multiplied by the distance from the pivot. One pound-foot is about 1.3558 N·m, one kilogram-force metre is 9.80665 N·m, and one pound-inch is 1/12 of a pound-foot. Car manuals and torque wrenches use different units depending on market. This converter helps you set a torque wrench correctly. A wheel-nut spec of 110 N·m is about 81 lb·ft, and small fasteners on bikes are often listed in N·m or lb·in. It also helps compare engine torque figures between brochures.
