How to Convert Kilogram-Force to Kilonewtons
To convert a measurement in kilogram-force to a measurement in kilonewtons, multiply the force by the following conversion ratio: 0.009807 kilonewtons/kilogram-force.
Since one kilogram-force is equal to 0.009807 kilonewtons, you can use this simple formula to convert:
kilonewtons = kilogram-force × 0.009807
The force in kilonewtons is equal to the force in kilogram-force multiplied by 0.009807.
Kilogram-force and kilonewtons are both units used to measure force. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
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 kgm / s2

What Is a Kilonewton?
One kilonewton is equal to 1,000 newtons, which are equal to the force needed to move one kilogram of mass at a rate of one meter per second squared.
The kilonewton is a multiple of the newton, which is the SI derived unit for force. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for thousands, or 103. Kilonewtons can be abbreviated as kN; for example, 1 kilonewton can be written as 1 kN.
