Convert foot pound-force/hour to foot pound-force/minute
Please provide values below to convert foot pound-force/hour [ft*lbf/h] to foot pound-force/minute [ft*lbf/min], or Convert foot pound-force/minute to foot pound-force/hour.
1 ft*lbf/h = 0.0166666666667 ft*lbf/min. To convert foot pound-force/hour to foot pound-force/minute, multiply the value by 0.0166666666667; to go the other way, divide by it (1 ft*lbf/min = 60 ft*lbf/h). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 ft*lbf/h = 0.0166666666667 ft*lbf/min
- 1 ft*lbf/min = 60 ft*lbf/h
- 10 ft*lbf/h = 0.166666666667 ft*lbf/min
- 100 ft*lbf/h = 1.66666666667 ft*lbf/min
How to Convert Foot Pound-Force/hour to Foot Pound-Force/minute
1 ft*lbf/h = 0.0166666666666667 ft*lbf/min
Example: convert 15 ft*lbf/h to ft*lbf/min:
15 ft*lbf/h = 15 × 0.0166666666666667 ft*lbf/min = 0.25 ft*lbf/min

Foot Pound-Force/hour
Foot pound-force per hour (ft*lbf/h) is a unit of power representing the amount of work done in foot-pounds over the period of one hour.
History/Origin
The foot pound-force is an imperial unit of work or energy, and its use in power measurements like ft*lbf/h has been common in engineering fields in the United States. It has been used historically in mechanical and thermodynamic contexts before the adoption of SI units.
Current Use
Today, ft*lbf/h is primarily used in specific engineering applications, such as in the measurement of small power outputs in mechanical systems, though it is largely replaced by SI units like watts in most scientific and international contexts.
Foot Pound-Force/minute
The foot pound-force per minute (ft*lbf/min) is a unit of power representing the amount of work done in foot-pounds over one minute.
History/Origin
This unit has been used primarily in engineering and mechanical contexts to measure power, especially in the United States, where imperial units are common. It originated from the foot-pound-force as a measure of work, combined with time to express power.
Current Use
The foot pound-force per minute is still used in certain engineering fields, particularly in the United States, for measuring power in mechanical systems, motors, and torque-related applications where imperial units are standard.
