How it's calculated
N·m = in·lb × 0.112985
in·lb = torque in inch-pounds, 0.112985 = newton-metres per inch-pound, N·m = result. Reverse: in·lb = N·m × 8.850746.
Common values
| Inch-pounds | Newton-meters |
|---|---|
| 1 in-lb | 0.113 Nm |
| 10 in-lb | 1.130 Nm |
| 50 in-lb | 5.649 Nm |
| 100 in-lb | 11.298 Nm |
Common questions
How many newton-meters is one inch-pound?
One inch-pound equals about 0.113 newton-meters.
When would I use inch-pounds instead of foot-pounds?
Inch-pounds suit small fasteners where foot-pound figures would be tiny fractions, such as electronics and light hardware.
