About Newton-meter (N·m)

The SI derived unit of torque, one newton-meter is the torque produced by a force of one newton applied at a one-meter lever arm. Automotive engine specifications list peak torque in Nm (a family sedan produces 200-350 Nm), and bolt tightening specifications in maintenance manuals use newton-meters.

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.
