How to convert Kilogram Force to Kilonewtons
Multiply the kilogram force value by 0.00980665: 1 kgf = 0.00980665 kN. Going the other way, 1 kN = 101.972 kgf, so divide by 0.00980665 or use the Kilonewtons to Kilogram Force converter.
About these units
Kilogram Force (kgf)
A kilogram-force, or kilopond, is the weight of one kilogram under standard gravity, exactly 9.80665 newtons.
Kilonewtons (kN)
A kilonewton is 1,000 newtons, about 225 pounds-force. Structural loads and climbing gear ratings are given in kN.
