What is a dyne millimeter?

A dyne millimeter (dyn·mm) is a cgs-derived torque unit representing one dyne of force applied at a lever arm of one millimeter.

Why convert dyne millimeter to newton millimeter?

Converting to newton millimeter translates very small torque values into a more widely used SI-based unit, facilitating specification and calibration.

Where is newton millimeter used?

Newton millimeter is applied in precision engineering for specifying small torques, such as tightening electronic fasteners or calibrating small torque sensors.
