Gram-Force Centimeter

Gram-force centimeter (gf·cm) is a unit of torque or moment of force, representing the force of one gram-force applied at a distance of one centimeter from the pivot point.

History/Origin

The gram-force centimeter originated from the use of the gram-force as a unit of force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts before the adoption of SI units.

Current Use

Today, the gram-force centimeter is rarely used, having been largely replaced by SI units such as the newton meter (N·m) for torque measurements, but it may still appear in specialized or legacy applications.


Pound-Force Foot

The pound-force foot (lbf·ft) is a unit of torque or moment of force, representing the force of one pound-force applied at a perpendicular distance of one foot from the pivot point.

History/Origin

The pound-force foot originated from the Imperial system of units, primarily used in the United States, to quantify torque in mechanical and engineering contexts before the widespread adoption of the SI system.

Current Use

Today, the pound-force foot is still used in certain engineering fields, particularly in the United States, to measure torque in automotive, mechanical, and structural applications, although the SI unit newton meter is more common internationally.
