Torque measurement

[RicB]

Hi Paul.
A google search on these two yield the following.  Put  <<1 pound force 
/foot in kilogram force / meter >> in the  google search line... and see 
what you get for this. Using google for quick conversions is very handy.

Cheers

1 (pound force/ foot) = 1.48816394 kilogram force / meter
1 (pound force/ inch) = 0.45359237 kilograms force / inch


    Hi all,

    With all the the talk [torque:)] about the Essex's loose tuning
    pins, I have wondered what measurement unit you guys over there use.
    I have a small conversion program on my computer and it has torque
    measurements in, amongst others; pound-force foot (lbf-ft) and
    pound-force inch (lbf-in).
    If one converts this to metric;
    1 pound-force foot = 0.1382552 kilogram-force meter (kgf-m)
    1 pound-force inch = 0.1152124 kilogram-force meter (kgf-m)

    Thanks.
