Metrology, Sensors & Materials

Torque conversion, temperature conversion, and material resistance calculators.

Torque Unit Converter

Convert between N·m, ft·lb, in·lb, kgf·m, and other torque units. Includes common aviation fastener torque reference.

Common Torque Reference

ApplicationTorque
Spark plug (aluminum head)20–30 N·m / 15–22 ft·lb
Spark plug (cast iron head)30–40 N·m / 22–30 ft·lb
AN3 bolt (3/10" aircraft bolt)20–25 in·lb / 2.26–2.82 N·m
AN4 bolt (1/4" aircraft bolt)50–70 in·lb / 5.65–7.91 N·m
AN5 bolt (5/16" aircraft bolt)100–140 in·lb / 11.3–15.8 N·m
AN6 bolt (3/8" aircraft bolt)160–190 in·lb / 18.1–21.5 N·m
BNC connector (hand tight + 1/4 turn)Not torqued — hand tight only
N-type connector1.36 N·m / 12 in·lb typical
Coax PL-259 connectorHand tight — do not wrench tighten
Fiber optic SC connectorPush-pull — no torque specification

Temperature Converter & Resistance Calculator

Convert between °C, °F, and K. Calculate how conductor resistance changes with temperature.
