What Is This Tool?
This converter allows users to transform moment of force measurements from ton-force (long) meter units to ton-force (short) meter units. It helps accurately compare torque specifications between two closely related imperial units commonly used in heavy industry and engineering.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter the value measured in ton-force (long) meters.
- Select the source unit as ton-force (long) meter.
- Choose the target unit as ton-force (short) meter.
- Initiate the conversion to see the equivalent torque in ton-force (short) meters.
Key Features
- Converts torque units between ton-force (long) meter and ton-force (short) meter.
- Based on the established conversion factor specific to long and short ton definitions.
- Suitable for applications involving large torque values in multiple industrial contexts.
Examples
- 5 ton-force (long) meters converts to approximately 5.6 ton-force (short) meters.
- 10 ton-force (long) meters converts to approximately 11.2 ton-force (short) meters.
Common Use Cases
- Expressing large bending moments in shipbuilding and marine equipment design.
- Rating torque capacity for cranes, winches, and heavy lifting devices.
- Designing and specifying large drive shafts, gearboxes, and mining machinery.
Tips & Best Practices
- Ensure precise selection of source and target units to maintain conversion accuracy.
- Use this tool for torque specifications where long and short ton definitions impact calculations.
- Double check converted values when applied in sensitive engineering scenarios.
Limitations
- Conversion assumes exact definitions of long and short tons without considering external loading context.

Key Terminology
- Ton-force (long) meter
- A torque unit using the force of a long ton (2240 pounds-force) applied at a one-meter distance.
- Ton-force (short) meter
- A torque unit defined by one short ton-force (2000 pounds-force) acting at one meter.
- Moment of force
- The measure of torque, calculated as a force applied perpendicular to a lever arm multiplied by the distance from the pivot.
