Pressure Unit Converter

Convert between the most used pressure units in engineering and science: pascal (Pa), kilopascal (kPa), bar, millibar (mbar), psi, atmosphere (atm), and torr/mmHg. We use pascal as the internal base so results are consistent across all units.

How it works

Every pressure you enter is first converted to pascal (Pa). Then we divide by the target unit’s factor. This avoids rounding chains like “bar → psi → kPa” and keeps the result clean.

Base factors

1 Pa = 1 Pa
1 kPa = 1,000 Pa
1 MPa = 1,000,000 Pa
1 bar = 100,000 Pa
1 mbar = 100 Pa
1 atm = 101,325 Pa
1 psi = 6,894.757293168 Pa
1 torr (mmHg) = 133.322368 Pa
1 inHg = 3,386.389 Pa
1 inH₂O = 249.0889 Pa

Formula

\( \text{target} = \text{value} \times \frac{\text{Pa of source}}{\text{Pa of target}} \)

Example

Convert 500 kPa to psi:

500 kPa = 500,000 Pa. psi = 500,000 / 6,894.75729 = 72.52 psi.
