Foot-Pounds to newton meters formula

N·m = ft·lb × 1.355817948

Take the value in foot-pounds.
Multiply it by 1.355817948 (the number of newton meters in one foot-pound).

Example: 100 ft·lb × 1.355817948 = 135.582 N·m.

Reverse formula (newton meters to foot-pounds): ft·lb = N·m ÷ 1.355817948. Example: 108.465 N·m ÷ 1.355817948 = 80 ft·lb.

Quick mental estimate: multiply by about 1.4. For exact answers use the converter above.

About foot-Pounds and newton meters

Foot-Pounds (ft·lb). The foot-pound (ft·lb or lb·ft) of torque is one pound-force applied one foot from the pivot, about 1.356 N·m. Torque wrenches in the US use it.

Newton meters (N·m). The newton meter (N·m) is the SI unit of torque: a force of one newton applied one meter from the pivot.

Frequently asked questions

How many newton meters are in a foot-pound?

One foot-pound equals 1.35582 newton meters.

How do you convert foot-pounds to newton meters?

Multiply the number of foot-pounds by 1.355817948. For example, 100 ft·lb × 1.355817948 = 135.582 N·m.

What is 80 foot-pounds in newton meters?

80 ft·lb is 108.465 N·m (wheel lug nuts (typical)).

How much is 200 foot-pounds in newton meters?

200 foot-pounds equals 271.164 newton meters.

How do I convert newton meters back to foot-pounds?

Divide by 1.355817948, or press the ⇄ swap button above. For example, 108.465 N·m ÷ 1.355817948 = 80 ft·lb.

Is ft·lb the same as lb·ft?

For torque, yes: both mean one pound-force acting at one foot from the pivot (1.3558 N·m). Engineers often write lb·ft for torque and ft·lb for energy to avoid confusion.
