Kilograms-force and tonnes-force assume standard Earth gravity (9.80665 m/s2). On the Moon the same mass would weigh about a sixth as much force.
Convert newtons and kilonewtons to pounds-force, kilograms-force, dynes and tonnes-force — for physics, engineering loads, lifting and thrust figures.

Convert newtons and kilonewtons to pounds-force, kilograms-force, dynes and tonnes-force — for physics, engineering loads, lifting and thrust figures.
A 1 kg mass resting on Earth weighs 9.81 newtons — exactly 1 kilogram-force by definition.
Result = input × source-unit factor ÷ destination-unit factor. All factors are relative to the same base unit; intermediate values are not rounded.
Newtons, Kilonewtons, Pounds-force, Kilograms-force, Dynes, Tonnes-force. Read the labels carefully: regional or decimal/binary variants are separate choices.
Strictly, no: the kilogram measures mass. Kilograms-force is the weight of that mass under standard gravity, kept here because scales, ropes and datasheets still quote it.
