About Pound-force (lbf)

The pound-force (lbf) is the gravitational force exerted by one pound of mass at standard gravity (9.80665 m/s-squared), equal to approximately 4.448 newtons. It is the standard force unit in US engineering for structural loads, jet engine thrust ratings, and mechanical testing.

About Kilogram-force (kgf)

Equal to the gravitational force on one kilogram (9.80665 N), the kilogram-force was widely used in engineering before the SI system standardized on the newton. It is still encountered in some countries for measuring body weight on scales, spring constants, and cable tension ratings.
