Conversion Formula
The formula to convert inch-pounds (inlb) to foot-pounds (ft-lb) is simple: divide the inlb value by 12 because there are 12 inches in a foot. This works because torque measurements are linearly related when changing distance units. For example, 36 inlb divided by 12 equals 3 ft-lb, confirming the conversion accuracy.
Mathematically: inlb value / 12 = ft-lb value. So, for 225 inlb: 225 ÷ 12 = 18.75 ft-lb. This division accounts for the difference in measurement units, making it easy to switch between the two torque units accurately.
Conversion Example
- Convert 150 inlb to ft-lb:
- Divide 150 by 12
- 150 ÷ 12 = 12.5 ft-lb
- Convert 300 inlb to ft-lb:
- Divide 300 by 12
- 300 ÷ 12 = 25 ft-lb
- Convert 90 inlb to ft-lb:
- Divide 90 by 12
- 90 ÷ 12 = 7.5 ft-lb
- Convert 240 inlb to ft-lb:
- Divide 240 by 12
- 240 ÷ 12 = 20 ft-lb

Conversion Definitions
inlb
Inch-pounds (inlb) measures torque, representing the rotational force applied at a distance of inches from the pivot point, used primarily in small-scale mechanical and automotive contexts to quantify twisting force.
ftlb
Foot-pounds (ft-lb) is a unit of torque measuring force applied at a distance of feet from the pivot point, commonly used in engineering to specify the amount of rotational force in larger mechanical systems.
Conversion FAQs
Why do I need to divide inlb by 12 to get ft-lb?
Dividing inlb by 12 converts inches to feet, because there are 12 inches in a foot. Since torque is based on distance, this division adjusts the measurement from inches to feet, providing the torque value in foot-pounds.
What happens if I use a different conversion factor?
Using an incorrect factor will lead to inaccurate torque calculations. Since the relationship between inches and feet is fixed at 12, any other factor would distort the conversion, resulting in values that don’t reflect the true physical torque.
Can this conversion be used for other units like mNm to Nm?
No, this specific formula applies only to inlb and ft-lb. For other units like milliNewton-meters (mNm) to Newton-meters (Nm), different conversion factors and formulas are necessary based on the metric system.
