Convert gram-force centimeter to gram-force meter
Please provide values below to convert gram-force centimeter [gf*cm] to gram-force meter [gf*m], or Convert gram-force meter to gram-force centimeter.
1 gf*cm = 0.01 gf*m. To convert gram-force centimeter to gram-force meter, multiply the value by 0.01; to go the other way, divide by it (1 gf*m = 100 gf*cm). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 gf*cm = 0.01 gf*m
- 1 gf*m = 100 gf*cm
- 10 gf*cm = 0.1 gf*m
- 100 gf*cm = 1 gf*m
How to Convert Gram-Force Centimeter to Gram-Force Meter
1 gf*cm = 0.01 gf*m
Example: convert 15 gf*cm to gf*m:
15 gf*cm = 15 × 0.01 gf*m = 0.15 gf*m

Gram-Force Centimeter
Gram-force centimeter (gf·cm) is a unit of torque or moment of force, representing the force of one gram-force applied at a distance of one centimeter from the pivot point.
History/Origin
The gram-force centimeter originated from the use of the gram-force as a unit of force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts before the adoption of SI units.
Current Use
Today, the gram-force centimeter is rarely used, having been largely replaced by SI units such as the newton meter (N·m) for torque measurements, but it may still appear in specialized or legacy applications.
Gram-Force Meter
A gram-force meter (gf·m) is a unit of torque or moment of force, representing the force of one gram-force applied at a distance of one meter from the pivot point.
History/Origin
The gram-force meter originated from the use of the gram-force as a unit of force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts before the adoption of SI units.
Current Use
Today, the gram-force meter is rarely used; it is mainly of historical interest or in specific niche applications where CGS units are still referenced, but most torque measurements are expressed in SI units such as newton-meters.
Frequently Asked Questions
