Conversion Formulas

N definition

F = m × a (1 N = 1 kg·m/s²)

N to dyn

1 N = 100,000 dyn

N to kgf

1 N = 0.101972 kgf

N to lbf

1 N = 0.224809 lbf

kgf to N

1 kgf = 9.80665 N

lbf to N

1 lbf = 4.44822 N

kipf to lbf

1 kipf = 1,000 lbf

Reference Information

Gravitational Acceleration

Earth surface gravitational acceleration: g = 9.80665 m/s²

Weight

Weight = Mass × Gravitational acceleration (W = m × g)

Conversion

1 kgf is the force on 1 kg mass under standard gravity

Force Units Guide

Newton (N)

SI base unit. Force required to accelerate 1kg object at 1m/s²

Gravity and Force

1 kgf = 9.80665 N (standard gravitational acceleration)

Conversion Tip

kgf is mainly used in Korea/Germany, lbf in US/UK
