How to Convert Newtons to Poundals
To convert a measurement in newtons to a measurement in poundals, multiply the force by the following conversion ratio: 7.233014 poundals/newton.
Since one newton is equal to 7.233014 poundals, you can use this simple formula to convert:
poundals = newtons × 7.233014
The force in poundals is equal to the force in newtons multiplied by 7.233014.
How Many Poundals Are in a Newton?
There are 7.233014 poundals in a newton, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 N = 7.233014 pdl
Newtons and poundals are both units used to measure force. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
What Is a Newton?
The newton is a unit to for measuring force equal to the force needed to move one kilogram of mass at a rate of one meter per second squared.[1]
The newton is the SI derived unit for force in the metric system. Newtons can be abbreviated as N; for example, 1 newton can be written as 1 N.
Newtons can be expressed using the formula: 1 N = 1 kgm / s2

What Is a Poundal?
The poundal is a unit equal to the force needed to move one pound of mass at a rate of one foot per second squared.
The poundal is a US customary and imperial unit of force. It's also used in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system of units. Poundals can be abbreviated as pdl; for example, 1 poundal can be written as 1 pdl.
Poundals can be expressed using the formula: 1 pdl = 1lb × ft / s2
