CALCULATOR
Inch-Pounds to Foot-Pounds Converter
Inch-Pounds to Foot-Pounds. Example: Value in lbf·in: 2.5 gives 0.208333333333 lbf·ft. Converts torque units using pound-force, not pound mass. Standard gravity 9.80665 m/s², pound 0.45359237 kg and foot 0.3048 m define the factors. This is unit arithmetic, not a bolt tightening specification, structural recommendation or energy calculation.
How the calculation works
value × 1/12
Worked example
With value in lbf·in 1 lbf·in, result in lbf·ft is 0.08333333333 lbf·ft.
