Convert Kilogram-force to Tonne-force

Kilogram-force → Tonne-force
kgf × 0.001 = tf tf × 1000 = kgf

To convert kilogram-force (kgf) to tonne-force (tf), multiply the kilogram-force value by 0.001. 1 kgf = 0.001 tf, and 1 tf = 1000 kgf. The conversion is a linear scaling with no offset, so the same factor applies to any value.

Going the other way? Convert tf to kgf.
