What is a Kilonewton (kN)?

A kilonewton is a metric unit of force equal to 1,000 newtons. It's commonly used in engineering and physics to measure large forces, such as structural loads or thrust.

What is Kilogram-Force (kgf)?

Kilogram-force is a non-SI unit of force equal to the magnitude of force exerted by one kilogram mass in standard gravity. It's widely used in engineering applications and material testing.
