I believe you.....
multiply Pounds per square inch x 0.006895 to convert to
Newton meters per square mm.

Be careful, there's a world of difference between a pound per inch (spring rate) and a pound-inch (torque)!

Buy a torque wrench with both scales? Some of the older Haynes manuals used to have a conversion chart.

There is a very good freeware program called 'Convert'. I keep it on the desktop of all the computers I use, very useful.
