The kilogram-force-meter (kgf·m) equals 9.80665 N·m — one kilogram subjected to standard gravity, acting at a one-meter lever arm. Common in older European automotive documentation and in some industrial torque-wrench scales.
The newton-meter (N·m) is the SI derived unit of torque — the moment of force exerted by one newton applied at one meter of perpendicular distance. The metric standard for every modern engineering spec sheet.
