To convert a measurement in kilogram-force to a measurement in micronewtons, multiply the force by the following conversion ratio: 9,806,650.12 micronewtons/kilogram-force.

Since one kilogram-force is equal to 9,806,650.12 micronewtons, you can use this simple formula to convert:

micronewtons = kilogram-force × 9,806,650.12

The force in micronewtons is equal to the force in kilogram-force multiplied by 9,806,650.12.

For example, here's how to convert 5 kilogram-force to micronewtons using the formula above.
micronewtons = (5 kgf × 9,806,650.12) = 49,033,250.6 μN

How Many Micronewtons Are in One Kilogram-Force?

There are 9,806,650.12 micronewtons in one kilogram-force, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 kgf = 9,806,650.12 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

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.
