Convert Newtons to Kilonewtons (N to kN)
1 N = 0.001 kN. Convert newtons to kilonewtons with the exact factor, a common-values table and a free converter.
Conversion factor
kN = N × 0.001
1 N = 0.001 kN
Multiply by 0.001 kN to go from newtons to kilonewtons, or divide by it to come back. The factor and every value below are computed by the same converter that runs at /convert, so this page and the tool cannot disagree.
N to kN table
| Newtons (N) | Kilonewtons (kN) |
|---|---|
| 1 N | 0.001 kN |
| 2 N | 0.002 kN |
| 5 N | 0.005 kN |
| 10 N | 0.01 kN |
| 20 N | 0.02 kN |
| 50 N | 0.05 kN |
| 100 N | 0.1 kN |
Every figure is computed at build time by the site’s own converter from the force unit registry. For a value that is not listed, put it into the interactive converter.
Frequently asked questions
How many kilonewtons are in one Newton?
One Newton is 0.001 kN, so 100 N is 0.1 kN.
What is the formula to convert newtons to kilonewtons?
kN = N × 0.001. Multiply the value in newtons by 0.001 to get kilonewtons.
How do I convert kilonewtons back to newtons?
N = kN × 1000, so 1 kN is 1000 N. The kN to N page carries the same table in that direction.
