Convert horsepower (metric) hour to gram-force meter
Please provide values below to convert horsepower (metric) hour [hp*h] to gram-force meter [gf*m], or Convert gram-force meter to horsepower (metric) hour.
1 hp*h = 270000000 gf*m. To convert horsepower (metric) hour to gram-force meter, multiply the value by 270000000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 gf*m = 3.7037037037e-09 hp*h). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 hp*h = 270000000 gf*m
- 1 gf*m = 3.7037037037e-09 hp*h
- 10 hp*h = 2700000000 gf*m
- 100 hp*h = 27000000000 gf*m
How to Convert Horsepower (Metric) Hour to Gram-Force Meter
1 hp*h = 270000000 gf*m
Example: convert 15 hp*h to gf*m:
15 hp*h = 15 × 270000000 gf*m = 4050000000 gf*m

Horsepower (Metric) Hour
A unit of energy representing the amount of work done by one horsepower over one hour, equivalent to 745.7 joules.
History/Origin
The horsepower hour was historically used to quantify energy in mechanical and engineering contexts, especially in the era of steam and early engines, but has largely been replaced by standard energy units like joules and kilowatt-hours.
Current Use
It is rarely used in modern practice, but may still appear in legacy systems or specific industrial applications to measure energy output or consumption related to horsepower-rated equipment.
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.
