To convert a measurement in micronewtons to a measurement in kilogram-force, multiply the force by the following conversion ratio: 1.0197E-7 kilogram-force/micronewton.

Since one micronewton is equal to 1.0197E-7 kilogram-force, you can use this simple formula to convert:

kilogram-force = micronewtons × 1.0197E-7

The force in kilogram-force is equal to the force in micronewtons multiplied by 1.0197E-7.

For example, here's how to convert 5,000,000 micronewtons to kilogram-force using the formula above.
kilogram-force = (5,000,000 μN × 1.0197E-7) = 0.509858 kgf

Micronewtons and kilogram-force are both units used to measure force. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Micronewton?

One micronewton is equal to 1/1,000,000 of a newton, which is equal to the force needed to move one kilogram of mass at a rate of one meter per second squared.

The micronewton is a multiple of the newton, which is the SI derived unit for force. In the metric system, "micro" is the prefix for millionths, or 10-6. Micronewtons can be abbreviated as μN; for example, 1 micronewton can be written as 1 μN.

What Is Kilogram-Force?

Kilogram-force is a unit of force equal to the force needed to move one kilogram of mass at a rate of 9.80665 meters per second squared.

The kilogram-force is a non-SI metric unit for force. Kilogram-force is sometimes also referred to as a kilopond. Kilogram-force can be abbreviated as kgf, and are also sometimes abbreviated as kgF. For example, 1 kilogram-force can be written as 1 kgf or 1 kgF.

Kilogram-force can be expressed using the formula: 1 kgf = 9.80665 kgms2
