Frequently asked questions
How many foot-pounds are in one Newton-meter?
One Newton-meter is 0.737562149 ft·lbf, so 100 N·m is 73.7562149 ft·lbf.
What is the formula to convert Newton-meters to foot-pounds?
ft·lbf = N·m × 0.737562149. Multiply the value in Newton-meters by 0.737562149 to get foot-pounds.
How do I convert foot-pounds back to Newton-meters?
N·m = ft·lbf × 1.35581795, so 1 ft·lbf is 1.35581795 N·m. The ft·lbf to N·m page carries the same table in that direction.
