Formula
Metric horsepower (PS) measures power, while Rontonewton meter (rN m) measures torque (rotational force). These are different physical quantities, so there is no single multiplication factor that converts one into the other.
PS relates to its own power base unit by a factor of 735.499. rN m relates to its own torque (rotational force) base unit by a factor of 0.

Frequently asked questions
Can Metric horsepower be converted to Rontonewton meter?
Not directly. Metric horsepower measures power and Rontonewton meter measures torque (rotational force). Converting between different physical quantities needs an extra physical relationship (such as area, distance, or time), not just a unit ratio.
What is Metric horsepower used for?
The Metric horsepower (PS) is a unit of power. Metric horsepower.
What is Rontonewton meter used for?
The Rontonewton meter (rN m) is a unit of torque (rotational force). Rontonewton meter is 1e-27 newton meter units.
Why does the converter show an incompatible units message?
The Universal Converter only calculates a numeric result when both units share the same physical dimension. Since Metric horsepower and Rontonewton meter don't, the tool flags them as not directly compatible rather than returning a meaningless number.
What should I convert Metric horsepower to instead?
Use another power unit, such as one of the related Metric horsepower conversions linked below.
What should I convert Rontonewton meter to instead?
Use another torque (rotational force) unit, such as one of the related Rontonewton meter conversions linked below.

About this conversion
This page compares Metric horsepower (PS) and Rontonewton meter (rN m) within the engineering converter.
Metric horsepower. Rontonewton meter is 1e-27 newton meter units.
Because Metric horsepower measures power and Rontonewton meter measures torque (rotational force), the two units are not directly convertible: there is no fixed ratio that turns one into the other without additional information.
The calculator above will report that these units are not compatible. For a working result, choose two units from the same measurement family — see the related conversions below.
