About Foot-pound Force (ft·lbf)

The standard torque unit in US automotive and mechanical work, one foot-pound equals approximately 1.356 Nm. Torque wrenches are calibrated in ft-lbf, lug nut specifications (typically 80-100 ft-lbf for passenger cars), and engine torque figures in US-market vehicles use this unit.

About Kilonewton-meter (kN·m)

One thousand newton-meters, the kilonewton-meter is used for large-scale torque measurements in wind turbine main shafts, ship propulsion systems, and heavy industrial machinery. A modern offshore wind turbine's drivetrain handles torques of several thousand kNm.
