What does one Newton millimeter represent?

One Newton millimeter is the torque produced by a force of one newton applied perpendicularly at a lever arm of one millimeter, commonly used in precision engineering.

When should I convert torque from N·mm to kN·m?

You should convert when you need to relate small precision torque values to larger industrial torque specifications or structural calculations.

Are there any accuracy concerns with this conversion?

Yes, due to the large magnitude difference, small converted values can have rounding errors, so maintain precision during calculations.
