Calculation Info

The Ounce Force To Pound Force (Ozf To Lbf) Converter is a handy tool designed to help you easily convert measurements of force from ounces-force (Ozf) to pounds-force (Lbf). This is useful in various fields such as engineering, physics, and everyday measurements where understanding force in different units is important.

Ounce-force (Ozf) is a unit of force that represents the force exerted by one ounce of mass under standard gravity. It is commonly used in small-scale force measurements. One ounce-force is equal to the force exerted by a one-ounce mass due to gravity, approximately 0.278 Newtons.

Pound-force (Lbf), on the other hand, is a unit of force used primarily in the United States customary system. It represents the force exerted by one pound of mass under standard gravity. One pound-force is approximately equal to 4.448 Newtons.

The conversion between ounces-force and pounds-force is straightforward. Since there are 16 ounces in a pound, the formula to convert ounces-force to pounds-force is:
1 Ozf = 1/16 Lbf. To convert a specific value, multiply the number of ounces-force by 1/16. For example, if you have 32 Ozf, the equivalent in Lbf is 32 × (1/16) = 2 Lbf.
