Pound-inches to Kilonewton-meters Converter

Pound-inch (lb·in) is an imperial torque unit for smaller precision applications, commonly used for electronics assembly, small engine specifications, and instrument calibration. Torque screwdrivers and precision fastener specifications in the US typically use lb·in. One pound-inch equals approximately 0.113 newton-meters or 1/12 of a pound-foot.

The kilonewton-meter (kN·m) equals 1,000 newton-meters, used in civil and structural engineering for large-scale torque specifications on bridges, cranes, and heavy industrial equipment. Foundation bolt specifications and wind turbine torque ratings are commonly expressed in kN·m. One kN·m equals approximately 737.6 pound-feet.
