This torque calculator can calculate the torque (T) value, distance (D) or force (F) by using the same formula (T = F * D) and can support various measurement units. You can read more about the equations used and the unit conversions below the tool.
How does this torque calculator work?
The algorithm behind this torque calculator is based on the equations provided below that depend on the variable to be calculated:
- T = F * D
- F = T / D
- D = T / F
Where:
T = Torque (usually expressed in Newton-meter).
F = Force (often measured in Newton).
D = Distance (often expressed in meter).
Torque can be defined asthe tendency of a force to rotate an object about an axis and is estimated by multiplying the distance (the distance from the pivot point to the area where force is applied) and that force applied.
