  2. Multiply by 192 to perform the conversion.
  3. The result is your value expressed in Ounce-force-inches (oz·in).

Conversion Factor

1 ft·lbf = 192 oz·in

Reverse Factor

1 oz·in = 0.00520832 ft·lbf

Worked Example

Convert 25 Foot-pounds-force to Ounce-force-inches: 25 ft·lbf = 4800.01 oz·in

About Foot-pound-force (ft·lbf)

An imperial unit of torque equal to one pound-force applied at a one-foot lever arm (about 1.356 N·m). Foot-pounds are the dominant US torque unit — automotive service manuals, wheel-lug torque specs, US-made torque wrenches, and firearms barrel-threading all list ft·lbf. A typical car's lug nut spec is 80–100 ft·lbf. Careful: ft·lbf as torque should not be confused with ft·lb as energy (same name, different dimension).

About Ounce-force-inch (oz·in)

An imperial unit of torque equal to one ounce-force at a one-inch lever arm (about 0.00706 N·m). Ounce-inches appear on US small-motor datasheets (fractional-horsepower DC motors, stepper motors, actuators), precision servo ratings, and instrument-grade mechanical equipment. At this scale, oz·in provides finer resolution than in·lbf for specifying startup torque and continuous-duty ratings of low-power motors.
