Frequently Asked Questions
- What does a poundal foot measure?
- A poundal foot measures moment of force or torque, defined as one poundal of force applied at a lever arm of one foot in imperial engineering.
- Why use ton-force meter instead of newton metre?
- Ton-force meter is preferred for expressing moments involving heavy loads and machinery where force is measured in metric tons.
- Can I convert torque from poundal foot to ton-force meter directly?
- Yes, this tool converts poundal foot values directly to ton-force meter using an established conversion rate.
Key Terminology
- Poundal foot [pdl*ft]
- An imperial unit of moment of force equal to one poundal applied at a lever arm of one foot.
- Ton-force (metric) meter
- A metric moment of force unit representing the force of one metric ton applied at one meter lever arm.
- Moment of force
- A measure of the tendency of a force to rotate an object about a pivot point or axis.
