They are both equally important in different scenarios. I don't know what you are talking about specifically, but on a drill RPMs are important when drilling through softer material to go faster, while torque is important on harder materials that can make the drill skip or freeze up otherwise.

RPM (Revolutions Per Minute)


When driven at 70 your RPMs are at 3000 what does that mean?

3000 rpm means that the engine is doing 3000 revolutions per minute. In a lower gear at the same speed the engine would be doing more revolutions per minute.


Customer want to buy a drill and ask you if torque or revolutions per minute is more important?

Depends on what materials they are normally going to be using it on. Softer materials, such as wood products or soft metals, I'd suggest to get a drill with high rpm's. But if they are going to be using it to drill hard substances then I would direct them towards a drill with a higher torque, as this will help to avoid the drill freezing up or skipping on the materials.


How does a rev counter work?

The rev counter works by counting the number of revolutions per minute of the engine. It is more often referred to as the tachometer and the numbers are multiplied by 1,000. If the gauge reads 18, that means that the engine is turning at 18,000 revolutions per minute.


How does gearing down affect the speed of a car?

Gearing down increases the engine's revolutions per minute (RPM) and torque, but decreases the speed of the car. This allows the engine to work at a more efficient RPM range for the desired speed or acceleration.


Why does your RPM go up and down?

Rpm stands for revolutions per minute. This is talking about the revolutions the crankshaft goes per minute. The faster you go to more revoultions that are accomplished. Therefore the faster you go, the rpm goes up. And as you slow down it goes down.


3500 RPM's equals how many miles?

No. rpm means revolutions per minute. An angular measurement (revolutions) divided by a time (minute) has no relationship to a linear measurement (miles). If there were other units and measurements in the equation there might be an answer but these are of different dimensions and so there is nothing more to say.


What is the difference between a vehicle engine and a marine motors?

Boat engines are built to hold high rpms (revolutions per minute) for long periods of time. Vehicle engines are not built for high rps or most of the anyways. Vehicle engines also have more torque the marine engine.


What is more important torque or RPMs in power tools?

It depends on the tool. In a large drill press, torque is more important. In a small edge trimmer router, rpm is more important. In a large plunge router both are of equal importance.


Which should you choose according to torque or horse power?

If you are going to use the vehicle to tow or haul something then torque is more important that h.p. However if you are not going to tow then h.p. is more important.
