Torque Measurements

Torque wrenches often have different scales. Small fasteners on bicycles or delicate engine parts might require inch-pounds (in-lbs), while lug nuts require foot-pounds (ft-lbs).

The Conversion

Because there are 12 inches in a foot, there are exactly 12 inch-pounds in one foot-pound. Simply divide your inch-pounds by 12 to get foot-pounds.
