Note these are surface tension units, where you divide the units. If you meant to convert torque, use the dash symbol to multiply, like N-m instead of N/m.
How many newton/meter in 1 lbf/ft? The answer is 14.593902887139. We assume you are converting between newton/metre and pound-force/foot. You can view more details on each measurement unit: newton/meter or lbf/ft The SI derived unit for surface tension is the newton/meter. 1 newton/meter is equal to 0.068521766091869 lbf/ft. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results. Use this page to learn how to convert between newtons/meter and pounds-force/foot. Type in your own numbers in the form to convert the units!
