Newton per meter

Newton per meter measures force along a line per unit length at a fluid interface.

History: Surface tension is commonly expressed as force per length or equivalently energy per area.

Current use: Used in fluid mechanics, coatings, detergents, capillarity, materials science, and surface chemistry.

Also written as N/m.

Pound-force per inch

One pound-force per inch is equal to 175.126835246476 newtons per meter.

History: Pound-force per inch follows customary force and length units.

Current use: Used mainly for legacy US customary engineering conversions.

Also written as lbf/in.
