Torque unit converter

Convert a value you already know. Keep the source specification beside the converted number so the unit never becomes detached from the job.

Converted value13.55818 N·m

120 in-lb × 0.11298 = 13.55818 N·m

Conversion factors

A conversion is not a torque specification.

Obtain the approved torque and procedure from the equipment manufacturer's current service information. Verify the units, rounding, thread condition, lubricant condition, fastener specification, and tightening sequence before work begins.
