Convert Newton-centimeters to Newton-meters

1 N·cm = 0.01 N·m — enter a value below to convert n cm to nm in either direction.

Newton-centimeters to Newton-meters formula

newton-meters = newton-centimeters × 0.01

Multiply the number of newton-centimeters by 0.01 to get newton-meters. To go the other way, multiply by 100 instead, or use the nm to n cm converter.

Worked example

To convert 25 N·cm to newton-meters, multiply by 0.01: the result is 0.25 N·m. Torque is force multiplied by perpendicular distance. Although ft-lb is common search wording, lbf·ft is used in results to distinguish torque from foot-pound energy.
