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.
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.
How to Convert Newton Meters to Pound Feet
Example: How many pound feet are equivalent to 7.16 newton meters?
As;
1 newton meters = 0.73756233595801 pound feet
7.16 newton meters = Y pound feet
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 7.16 times 0.73756233595801 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 7.16 * 0.73756233595801 / 1 = 5.2809463254593 pound feet
Answer is: 5.2809463254593 pound feet are equivalent to 7.16 newton meters.
