How to convert inch-pounds to newton-meters

1 lbf·in = 0.112984829028 N·m, so multiply by 0.112984829028 to go from inch-pounds (lbf·in) to newton-meters. Going the other way, 1 N·m = 8.85074579133 lbf·in.

N·m = lbf·in × 0.112984829028
lbf·in = N·m × 8.85074579133

Worked example:

1 lbf·in = 0.112984829028 N·m
5 × 0.112984829028 = 0.564924145138 N·m
