Torque is a measure of how much twisting is applied to a fastener.
The units used to measure torque are in the form of force
times length.
The metric (SI) unit of torque is the newton metre (Nm). In
inch units, torque is usually measured as Lb-Ft (pounds feet)
or Lb-In (pounds inch). The Torque Converter Calculator will
allow you to convert Nm to Lb-Ft or Lb-In or vice-versa. The
calculator uses the conversion 1 Lb-Ft = 1.35582 Nm.
