Pound Foot (abbreviations: lb.ft, or lb ft, or pound.foot): is the moment of force in pound times the distance between reference and application points in foot.
Kilonewton.meter (abbreviations: KN.m, or kn m): is the moment of force in kilonewton times the distance between reference and application points in meter.
How to Convert Pound Feet to Kilonewton Meters
Example: How many kilonewton meters are equivalent to 82.51 pound feet?
As;
1 pound feet = 0.001355817605167 kilonewton meters
82.51 pound feet = Y kilonewton meters
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 82.51 times 0.001355817605167 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 82.51 * 0.001355817605167 / 1 = 0.11186851060233 kilonewton meters
Answer is: 0.11186851060233 kilonewton meters are equivalent to 82.51 pound feet.
