Converting torque values between different units is often necessary when dealing with torque measurements to ensure consistency and precision. Torque, a fundamental concept in physics and engineering, represents the rotational force or the turning effect exerted by a force. It holds significant importance across various fields, including automotive, mechanical engineering, and industrial machinery.

Torque can be quantified using various measurement systems, and it’s essential to convert between these units accurately to maintain compatibility and precision in torque measurements.

To perform accurate torque conversions, users need to understand the specific conversion factors associated with each unit.

Here are the conversion factors for commonly encountered torque units:
