Millinewtons
A millinewton (mN) represents 0.001 newtons. It is useful in describing minute forces, such as the force required to depress a key on a keyboard or other sensitive components in consumer electronics.
Kilogram-Force
Kilogram-force (kgf) is the force exerted by the weight of one kilogram under standard gravity. It is often used in engineering to describe the force of everyday objects and loads, such as the force exerted by a heavy tool or piece of equipment. It is a non-SI unit but still finds practical use in many fields.
