Oz in Definition
An oz in (ounce-inch) is a unit of torque commonly used to describe rotational force in small mechanical systems. It represents the torque resulting from one ounce of force applied at a one-inch radius.
Ft lb Definition
A foot-pound (ft lb) is a standard unit of torque in the imperial system. It refers to the torque generated by one pound of force applied one foot from the pivot point.
