My dads Frud book has things listed that need to be torqued in inch pounds, but he doesnt know how to convert it to foot LBS. There are a lot of online torque converter programs, but it seems easier to figure out on a calculator than getting online to figure out what the conversion would be. Anyone know the formula?

Just like a ruler, which is what it is. One pound of torque applied at one foot is 12 pounds of torque applied at one inch. Now to convert to metric I need the table. Mike :rolleyes: | | |
