METRIC SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION
The metric system is based on quantities of one,
ten, one hundred, one thousand and one million.
MULTIPLY BY
in-lbs x 0.11298
ft-lbs x 1.3558
Inches Hg x 3.377
(60° F)
psi x 6.895
Inches x 25.4
Feet x 0.3048
Yards x 0.9144
mph x 1.6093
Feet/Sec x 0.3048
mph x 0.4470
Kilometers/ x 0.27778
Hr. (Km/h)
1 inch = 25 Millimeters
1 Foot = 0.3 Meter
1 Yard = 0.9 Meter
1 Mile = 1.6 Kilometers
Refer to the Metric Conversion Chart to convert
torque values listed in metric Newton- meters (N·m).
Also, use the chart to convert between millimeters
(mm) and inches (in.)
