Frequently Asked Questions

What is a gram-force centimeter?
A gram-force centimeter is a non-SI unit of torque defined as the moment produced by a force of one gram-force applied at a distance of one centimeter from the pivot.

What does poundal inch [pdl*in] measure?
Poundal inch measures torque as the moment produced by one poundal of force acting at a perpendicular distance of one inch.

Why convert gram-force centimeter to poundal inch?
Conversion is useful to interpret small torque values expressed in metric units within the foot–poundal–second system, especially for legacy engineering data or educational problems.

Is this converter suitable for all torque conversions?
No, it is specifically designed for converting between these two units and may not be appropriate for standardized or industrial applications requiring SI units.

Key Terminology

Gram-force centimeter
A non-SI torque unit equal to the moment produced by a force of one gram-force acting perpendicularly at one centimeter distance.
Poundal inch [pdl*in]
A torque unit in the fps system equal to the moment from a one poundal force applied at one inch.
Moment of force
A measure of the tendency of a force to rotate an object about a pivot point.
