How torque conversion works
Torque is force applied at a perpendicular distance from an axis. Although torque and energy can share dimensions, they represent different physical concepts and are kept in separate converters.
Values are converted to newton-meter first, then from that reference into the requested unit. Keeping a single documented reference reduces inconsistent pair-by-pair constants.

Questions
Torque FAQ
What is the reference unit for torque conversions?
ConvertWin uses newton-meter (N·m) as the internal reference for this category, then converts to the selected output unit.
How accurate is this torque converter?
Factors use exact international length definitions and conventional standard gravity for force-based units.
