How to Convert Kilonewtons to Newtons
To convert a measurement in kilonewtons to a measurement in newtons, multiply the force by the following conversion ratio: 1,000 newtons/kilonewton.
Since one kilonewton is equal to 1,000 newtons, you can use this simple formula to convert:
newtons = kilonewtons × 1,000
The force in newtons is equal to the force in kilonewtons multiplied by 1,000.
How Many Newtons Are in a Kilonewton?
There are 1,000 newtons in a kilonewton, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 kN = 1,000 N
Kilonewtons and newtons are both units used to measure force. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
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.

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
