1 newton-meter equals 0.101972 kilogram-force meters
How to convert newton-meters to kilogram-force meters
Pound-foot and pound-inch here use pound-force. Although torque and energy share dimensions, torque describes a turning effect; these values do not become energy values without an angular displacement.
kgf·m = N·m ÷ 9.80665One kilogram-force meter corresponds to 9.80665 newton-meters, so divide by that figure. Displayed constants may be rounded; the converter uses the stored factor before rounding the result.

kilogram-force meterkgf·m
One kilogram-force applied at one metre. Common in Japanese vehicle specifications.
Sources and precision
Table results are rounded to 8 significant digits; formula constants may be rounded to 10. Worked example answers use 6 significant digits. The converter starts at 6 significant digits and lets you change display precision. Calculations use the stored factors without intermediate rounding. Exact unit definitions do not make an input measurement more precise; conventional and measured factors follow the assumptions stated here.
