2. Pound-foot (torque) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound-foot_(torque)

   This gives the exact conversion factor: One pound-foot = 1.355 817 948 331 400 4 newton metres. The name "pound-foot", intended to minimize confusion with the foot-pound as a unit of work, was apparently first proposed by British physicist Arthur Mason Worthington. [3] Despite this, in practice torque units are commonly called the foot-pound ...

4. Torque - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque

   In the US, torque is most commonly referred to as the foot-pound (denoted as either lb-ft or ft-lb) and the inch-pound (denoted as in-lb). [ 17 ] [ 18 ] Practitioners depend on context and the hyphen in the abbreviation to know that these refer to torque and not to energy or moment of mass (as the symbolism ft-lb would properly imply).

5. Effective torque - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_torque

   Effective torque (often referred to as wheel torque or torque to the wheels) is a concept primarily associated with automotive tuning. Torque can be measured using a dynamometer. Common units used in automotive applications can include foot-pounds and Newton·meters. [1] The formula for effective torque to the wheels is: [2] Tw = Te * N tf * η ...

6. Newton-metre - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton-metre

   The newton-metre or newton-meter (also non-hyphenated, newton metre or newton meter; symbol N⋅m [1] or N m [1]) [a] is the unit of torque (also called moment) in the International System of Units (SI). One newton-metre is equal to the torque resulting from a force of one newton applied perpendicularly to the end of a moment arm that is one ...

7. Torque wrench - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_wrench

   A click torque wrench. A torque wrench is a tool used to apply a specific torque to a fastener such as a nut, bolt, or lag screw.It is usually in the form of a socket wrench with an indicating scale, or an internal mechanism which will indicate (as by 'clicking', a specific movement of the tool handle in relation to the tool head) when a specified (adjustable) torque value has been reached ...

8. Torsion (mechanics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_(mechanics)

   Torsion of a square section bar Example of torsion mechanics. In the field of solid mechanics, torsion is the twisting of an object due to an applied torque [1] [2].Torsion could be defined as strain [3] [4] or angular deformation [5], and is measured by the angle a chosen section is rotated from its equilibrium position [6].

9. Foot-pound (energy) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot-pound_(energy)

   Both energy and torque can be expressed as a product of a force vector with a displacement vector (hence pounds and feet); energy is the scalar product of the two, and torque is the vector product. Although calling the torque unit "pound-foot" has been academically suggested, both are still commonly called "foot-pound" in colloquial usage.
