Convert N-cm to kgf-cm
Newton centimeters to kilogram-force centimeters. Enter a value to convert, or use the N-cm to kgf-cm chart further down the page.
1 newton centimeter equals 0.1019716213 kilogram-force centimeters. Going the other way, 1 kilogram-force centimeter = 9.80665 newton centimeters.
Note. Torque and energy share the same dimensions, so a newton metre and a joule are numerically identical — but they are not interchangeable in meaning. Keep torque figures in torque units.
How to convert N-cm to kgf-cm
To convert newton centimeters to kilogram-force centimeters, multiply the newton centimeter value by 0.1019716213. You can also divide by 9.80665 to get the same answer.
kgf·cm = N·cm × 0.1019716213
