How to Convert Ounce-inch to Newton-centimeter
- 1 ozf·in = 0.7061551814 N·cm
- 1 N·cm = 1.416119327 ozf·in
- Example: convert 15 ozf·in to N·cm: 15 ozf·in = 15 × 0.7061551814 N·cm = 10.59232772 N·cm
Formula
N·cm = ozf·in × 0.7061551814226
or N·cm = ozf·in ÷ 1.416119326612
Derivation from SI units:
- 1 ozf·in = 1/16 lbf·in = 0.00706155181 N·m
- 1 N·cm = 0.01 N·m
- 1 ozf·in = 0.007061551814226 N·m ÷ 0.01 N·m per N·cm = 0.7061551814226 N·cm
Both units are defined exactly, so the factor is exact. Ounce-inch definition: ounce-inch; Newton-centimeter definition: newton-centimeter.
Worked examples
- A reading of 10 ozf·in converts to 7.061551814 N·cm.
10 ozf·in × 0.7061551814 = 7.061551814 N·cm - A value of 100 ozf·in is 70.61551814 N·cm.
100 ozf·in × 0.7061551814 = 70.61551814 N·cm
