Convert poundal to exanewton
Please provide values below to convert poundal [pdl] to exanewton [EN], or Convert exanewton to poundal.
1 pdl = 1.3825e-19 EN. To convert poundal to exanewton, multiply the value by 1.3825e-19; to go the other way, divide by it (1 EN = 7.2330e+18 pdl). Both units measure force and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference

Poundal
The poundal (pdl) is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, defined as the force required to accelerate a one-pound mass at a rate of one foot per second squared.
History/Origin
The poundal was introduced in the 19th century as part of the FPS system of units, primarily used in engineering and physics in the United States before the widespread adoption of the SI system.
Current Use
Today, the poundal is largely obsolete and rarely used, having been replaced by the SI unit newton; however, it may still be referenced in historical contexts or specialized engineering fields.
Exanewton
An exanewton (EN) is a unit of force equal to 10^18 newtons.
History/Origin
The exanewton was introduced as part of the International System of Units (SI) prefixes to represent extremely large forces, following the adoption of the SI system and its prefixes in the 20th century.
Current Use
The exanewton is primarily used in theoretical physics and large-scale engineering contexts where extremely large forces are involved, though it is rarely used in practical applications due to its size.
