Pound-Force Foot to Newton Meter (lbf·ft to N·m)
Convert lbf·ft to N·m — Torque converter
Also written as lbf-ft to N-m.
One pound-force foot equals 1.355818 N·m, so to convert foot-pounds to newton meters you multiply the value by 1.355818. A pound-force foot is larger than a newton meter — going the other way, 1 N·m = 0.73756215 lbf·ft. For example, 10 lbf·ft = 13.558179 N·m and 50 lbf·ft = 67.790897 N·m.
1 lbf·ft = 1.355818 N·m
