Pound Inch (abbreviations: lb.in, or lb in, or pound.inch): is the moment of force in pound times the distance between reference and application points in inch.
Newton Meter (abbreviations: N.m, or nm, or newton.meter): is the moment of force in newton times the distance between reference and application points in meter.
How to Convert Pound Inches to Newton Meters
Example: How many newton meters are equivalent to 44.66 pound inches?
As;
1 pound inches = 0.11298480043059 newton meters
44.66 pound inches = Y newton meters
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 44.66 times 0.11298480043059 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 44.66 * 0.11298480043059 / 1 = 5.04590118723 newton meters
Answer is: 5.04590118723 newton meters are equivalent to 44.66 pound inches.
