Newton Meters to Foot-Pounds Conversion Calculator

Formula

To convert NM to ft-lbs:

\[ \text{ft-lbs} = \text{NM} \times 0.73756 \]

To convert ft-lbs to NM:

\[ \text{NM} = \frac{\text{ft-lbs}}{0.73756} \]

Definition

NM and ft-lbs are both units of torque representing a distance times a force. Converting between the two is done using the formula \(\text{ft-lbs} = \text{NM} \times 0.73756\) or conversely, \(\text{NM} = \text{ft-lbs} / 0.73756\).

Common Conversion Values

1 NM = 0.73756 ft-lbs
2 NM = 1.47512 ft-lbs
3 NM = 2.21267 ft-lbs
4 NM = 2.95024 ft-lbs
5 NM = 3.6878 ft-lbs
10 NM = 7.3756 ft-lbs
50 NM = 36.878 ft-lbs
50 ft-lbs = 67.89109 NM

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following value:

Newton Meters \( \text{NM} \) = 10

Step 1: Multiply the Newton Meters by the conversion factor:

\[ \text{ft-lbs} = 10 \times 0.73756 = 7.3756 \text{ ft-lbs} \]
