You mean pressure. That is never per inch or per cm. It needs to be square inches or square centimeters. 1 pound per square inch is 6894.757 newtons per square meter. Pound per inch is a measure of fabric strength. Normally any fabric when subjected to a strength test, a specific widteh is taken (normally 2") the fabric of t" width would give way at a particular load and this is expressed as fabric strength. SInce fabrics are soft and compressible, their trhickness measurement is dicey. and length measurement has no controversy about it. Unlike metals, where strength is measured as lb/square inch, fabri strength is always expressed per unit length.
