Question 1

What is metric ton-force meter?

Accepted Answer

Torque unit: 1 tf·m = 9806.65 N·m. Force of 1000 kg at 1 m lever arm. Heavy machinery torque specs.

Question 2

How do you convert metric tonf·m to N·m?

Accepted Answer

Multiply by 9806.65. Example: 2 tf·m = 19,613.3 N·m.

Question 3

Why are torque specs important?

Accepted Answer

Correct torque ensures proper clamping force. Too loose causes loosening/failure. Too tight causes stretching, stripping, or component damage.

Question 4

What's the difference between torque and force?

Accepted Answer

Force is a straight push/pull. Torque is rotational force: torque = force × distance from pivot. Same force at longer distance = more torque.
