To convert newton-meters (Nm) to foot-pounds (ft/lbs) all you need to do is divide your figure (Nm) by 1.356. One foot-pound (ft/lb) is equal to 1.356 newton-meters (Nm). 1 Metric Units kilogram - force metre (kgfm) also called kilopound metre (kpm). In the United States, torque is typically measured using pound-force inches (lbfin), pound-force foot (lbfft), and ounce-force inches (ozfin). These include the kilogram-force meter (kgfm), Newton meter (Nm), and the gram-force centimeter (gfcm).
