Torque cross chart
Is there something out there that would show what inch pounds would be in foot lbs. IE. 5in.lbs = how many foot pounds?? Just get an inch pound torque wrench I guess and make life easy.

ft-lbs = in.-lbs / 12
in-lbs. = ft-lbs x 12
But, when applying a torque in in-lbs, you would do best to use an in-lb torque wrench. 120 in-lbs is equal to 10 ft-lbs, which is just at the beginning of the ft-lbs torque wrench scale. At that point on the scale, there is significant error.
