About these units
Hectonewtons
A hectonewton (hN) is equal to 100 newtons. It’s a relatively uncommon unit of force but can be useful when dealing with intermediate-scale forces that fall between kilonewtons and newtons. It might be used in measuring the force applied by certain mechanical devices.
Kip-Force
A kip-force (kipf) is equal to 1,000 pounds-force. It is commonly used in structural engineering in the United States to describe the load-carrying capacity of structures and components.
