What does newton second per square meter measure?

It measures dynamic (absolute) viscosity, indicating a fluid’s internal resistance to shear in SI units.

Why convert to pound/foot/hour for viscosity?

This unit is used in certain regions and legacy engineering documents that rely on imperial measurements with hour-based time.

Can I use this converter for all viscosity conversions?

This converter is specifically for converting newton second/square meter to pound/foot/hour; other viscosity unit conversions require different tools.
