To convert a measurement in dynes to a measurement in kilogram-force, multiply the force by the following conversion ratio: 1.0197E-6 kilogram-force/dyne.

Since one dyne is equal to 1.0197E-6 kilogram-force, you can use this simple formula to convert:

kilogram-force = dynes × 1.0197E-6

The force in kilogram-force is equal to the force in dynes multiplied by 1.0197E-6.

For example, here's how to convert 500,000 dynes to kilogram-force using the formula above.
kilogram-force = (500,000 dyn × 1.0197E-6) = 0.509858 kgf

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

What Is a Dyne?

The dyne is the force needed to move one gram of mass at a rate of one centimeter per second squared.

The dyne is a centimeter-gram-second (CGS) unit of force. Dynes can be abbreviated as dyn; for example, 1 dyne can be written as 1 dyn.

Dynes can be expressed using the formula: 1 dyn = 1 gcms2

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
