A kilogram-force per square centimetre (kgf/cm 2), often just kilogram per square centimetre (kg/cm 2), or kilopond per square centimetre (kp/cm 2) is a deprecated unit of pressure using metric units.
The kilogram-force (kgf or kg F), or kilopond (kp, from Latin: pondus, lit. 'weight'), is a non-standard gravitational metric unit of force . It is not accepted for use with the International System of Units (SI) [ 1 ] and is deprecated for most uses.
In Germany, the kilopond lost its legal status as a unit of force on 1 January 1978, when for legal purposes the SI unit system was adopted. [3] A kilopond can be converted to the SI unit newton by multiplication with the standard acceleration g n: 1 kp = g n ⋅ 1 kg = 9.806 65 kg⋅m⋅s −2 = 9.806 65 N

The symbol kp usually stands for the kilopond, a unit of force, or kilogram-force, used primarily in Europe prior to the introduction of SI units. The kip is also the name of a unit of mass equal to approximately 9.19 kilograms. This usage is obsolete, and was used in Malaysia. [2] [3]
