i'm not sure this is the right form but since this is my house so i'll just post it here.

anyone have idea that how the torque translate to kg ??

 

convert ft*lbs to n*m

 

This site probably has it somewhere.

Comparing lb-ft to kg is like comparing apples to oranges. I think what .RJ was is telling you is that you CAN convert lb-ft to newton-meters, which at least is a metric value like kg.

 

I dont think he has a grasp on what torque is a measure of.

 

Torque is a measure of force, kg is a weight. Not the same thing, they cannot be converted back and forth. Go here and search for more info: http://www.howstuffworks.com/

 

1 ft-lb = 1.797 kgf m

That's kilogram force meter.

What is a kg force meter? I dont believe there is such a thing. Torque is measured in Newton*meters. 1 lb is 4.448 N...1 ft = 0.305 m....that means 1ft*lb equates to 1.356 N*m. Not ridin on anybody, just statin facts.

 

Yes, kgf-m exists. My physics book says so

1 lb-ft = 0.138 kgf-m

Pounds can convert to Kilograms just like they convert to Newtons.

 

too much math here lol... that's why i hate they showing kg on those jap videos

 

Well yes obviously you were going to have to use math to convert the numbers.

But here's a torque conversion calculator you can use.
