Ton-Force (Short) Meter [tonf·m]


Ton-force (short) meter (tonf·m) is a unit of torque that measures the rotational force produced when one short ton-force is applied perpendicularly at a distance of one meter from the axis of rotation. A short ton-force, commonly used in the United States, equals 2,000 pounds-force. This unit is useful in large-scale engineering, construction, and industrial applications where substantial forces are involved, such as cranes, heavy machinery, and structural components. A higher tonf·m value indicates greater rotational force and the ability to generate more torque or angular acceleration, while a lower value represents less force. Engineers use this unit to calculate torque requirements, optimize mechanical performance, and ensure safety and stability in systems subjected to high loads. By combining large force and rotational distance, ton-force meter provides a practical and precise measure for analyzing, designing, and managing rotational dynamics in heavy-duty mechanical and industrial applications.

Pound-Force Foot [lbf·ft]


Pound-force foot (lbf·ft) is a unit of torque that measures the rotational force applied when a force of one pound-force is exerted perpendicularly at a distance of one foot from the axis of rotation. One pound-force represents the force exerted by a mass of one pound under standard gravity. This unit is commonly used in mechanical engineering, automotive design, construction, and industrial applications to evaluate torque, rotational performance, and mechanical efficiency. A higher lbf·ft value indicates greater torque and stronger rotational force, while a lower value signifies less force applied. Engineers and designers use this measure to calculate torque requirements, design engines, gear systems, and machinery, and ensure stability and safety in rotating components. By linking force and distance from the rotation axis, pound-force foot provides a practical and widely used unit for analyzing and managing rotational dynamics in mechanical, industrial, and engineering applications.
