Millinewton to kilogram-force converter (mN to kgf)

Conversion Formula

1 mN = 1.02e-4 kgf

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Millinewton = 0.001000 newtons
   1 Kilogram-force = 9.807 newtons
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 mN = (0.001000 N) / (9.807 N/kgf) = 1.02e-4 kgf
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in mN by 1.02e-4 to get the equivalent in kgf

Example Conversion

Convert 5 mN to kgf:

5 mN × 1.02e-4 = 5.10e-4 kgf
