Dyne to Kilogram-Force Converter

About Dyne to Kilogram-Force Conversion

What is a Dyne?

A dyne (dyn) is a CGS unit of force. It's defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared. The formula is: 1 dyn = 1 g⋅cm/s²

What is Kilogram-Force?

Kilogram-force (kgf), also known as kilopond, is the force exerted by one kilogram mass under standard gravity (9.80665 m/s²). It's commonly used in engineering and mechanics.

Conversion Formula

To convert from dynes to kilogram-force, multiply the force value by 1.0197×10⁻⁶:

Kilogram-force = Dynes × 1.0197×10⁻⁶
