Multiply by 0.1129848. 100 in·lbs is 11.3 N·m, 45 in·lbs is 5.1 N·m and 20 in·lbs is 2.26 N·m. Roughly, divide by nine: 90 in·lbs ≈ 10 N·m (exact 10.2).
in·lbs appear on small-fastener specs — valve covers, intake plenums, trim, electronics enclosures and bicycle parts — where the N·m value would fall below 15. Be careful not to confuse in·lbs with ft·lbs on the same wrench scale: setting 100 ft·lbs instead of 100 in·lbs applies twelve times the intended torque and will strip or snap a small fastener.
