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.
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.
