Reverse Factor

1 oz·in = 0.0720078 kgf·cm

Worked Example

Convert 25 Kilogram-force-centimeters to Ounce-force-inches: 25 kgf·cm = 347.185 oz·in

About Kilogram-force-centimeter (kgf·cm)

A legacy metric unit of torque equal to one kilogram-force applied at a one-centimeter lever arm (about 0.098 N·m). kgf·cm is common on small-motor datasheets (stepper motors, servos, RC motors) especially from Asian manufacturers, and on legacy Japanese small-engine specifications. It's sized between in·lbf and N·m for convenient quoting of sub-1-newton-meter torques.

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.

Understanding Kilogram-force-centimeters

The Kilogram-force-centimeter (symbol: kgf·cm) is a unit of torque. A legacy metric unit of torque equal to one kilogram-force applied at a one-centimeter lever arm (about 0.098 N·m). kgf·cm is common on small-motor datasheets (stepper motors, servos, RC motors) especially from Asian manufacturers, and on legacy Japanese small-engine specifications. It's sized between in·lbf and N·m for convenient quoting of sub-1-newton-meter torques.

It belongs to the metric measurement system.

Kilogram-force-centimeters are commonly used in automotive maintenance, structural engineering, and manufacturing.

Understanding Ounce-force-inches

The Ounce-force-inch (symbol: oz·in) is a unit of torque. 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.

It belongs to the imperial measurement system.

Ounce-force-inches are commonly used in automotive maintenance, structural engineering, and manufacturing.
