What is an ounce-force inch?

An ounce-force inch is a torque unit representing one ounce-force applied one inch from a pivot, used mainly for very small torque measurements.

Why convert from ounce-force inch to newton meter?

Converting allows small-scale torque measurements to be expressed in the standard SI unit, useful in mechanical, automotive, and engineering applications.

Can this converter handle large torque values?

No, the ounce-force inch unit suits very small torques and conversions of larger values are better done directly in newton meters.
