What is a kilogram-force meter?

It is a non-SI unit of torque representing the moment produced by a force of one kilogram-force applied perpendicularly at a distance of one metre.

When should I use ounce-force inch?

Ounce-force inch is ideal for measuring very small torque moments such as those found in electronics assembly and precision instruments.

Why convert between kilogram-force meter and ounce-force inch?

To translate torque measurements from larger, older metric units to precise small-scale torque values required in fields like watchmaking and electronics.
