How to Convert Newton-centimeter to Ounce-inch
- 1 N·cm = 1.416119327 ozf·in
- 1 ozf·in = 0.7061551814 N·cm
- Example: convert 15 N·cm to ozf·in: 15 N·cm = 15 × 1.416119327 ozf·in = 21.2417899 ozf·in
Formula
ozf·in = N·cm × 1.416119326612
Derivation from SI units:
- 1 N·cm = 0.01 N·m
- 1 ozf·in = 1/16 lbf·in = 0.00706155181 N·m
- 1 N·cm = 0.01 N·m ÷ 0.007061551814226 N·m per ozf·in = 1.416119326612 ozf·in
Both units are defined exactly, so the factor is exact. Newton-centimeter definition: newton-centimeter; Ounce-inch definition: ounce-inch.
Worked examples
- A reading of 20 N·cm converts to 28.32238653 ozf·in.
20 N·cm × 1.416119327 = 28.32238653 ozf·in - A value of 50 N·cm is 70.80596633 ozf·in.
50 N·cm × 1.416119327 = 70.80596633 ozf·in
