What does one inch-ounce represent?

One inch-ounce is the torque resulting from a one ounce-force acting through a one-inch distance, commonly used for small-scale torque measurements.

How is inch-pound different from inch-ounce?

An inch-pound involves one pound-force applied over one inch, representing a larger torque unit commonly used in engineering compared to the smaller inch-ounce.

Why convert inch-ounce to inch-pound?

Converting helps standardize torque measurements by translating small torque values into a more commonly used unit in mechanical and engineering applications.
