Document Summary
Terms breaking force de nition units of measurement calculation / equation additional notes the mass of the load applied until break occurs kg (kilograms) or kgf (kilograms force) / si unit is newton (n) 1 kgf = 9. 81 n or ~10 n. 1 n = 0. 102 kgf (xn / 9. 81 or ~10) kgf x 10 = ~n n / 10 = ~kgf. Newton includes acceleration due to gravity breaking load, breaking strength, or tensile strength max load applied up to the point of rupture; load in which bre or yarn breaks. Newton (n) stress force applied to a specimen divided by its cross-sectional area. Newtons per metres squared (n/m2) or pascal (pa) Newtons per tex (n/tex) force applied (n) / yarn or bre linear density (tex) Newtons per tex (n/tex) breaking load in n / tex only at the point in the curve where break occurs.
