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.
Ton Meter (abbreviations: t.m, or tm, or ton.meter): is the moment of force in ton times the distance between reference and application points in meter.
How to Convert Pound Inches to Ton.meters
Example: How many ton.meters are equivalent to 51.96 pound inches?
As;
1 pound inches = 1.152144E-5 ton.meters
51.96 pound inches = Y ton.meters
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 51.96 times 1.152144E-5 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 51.96 * 1.152144E-5 / 1 = 0.0005986540224 ton.meters
Answer is: 0.0005986540224 ton.meters are equivalent to 51.96 pound inches.
