Kilopascals to Bars Converter kPa → bar

1 kilopascal (kPa) = 0.01 bars (bar). Type a value below, the conversion happens instantly, entirely on your device.

From

1 kPa = 0.01 bar

Precision

240 kilopascals = 2.4 bars

240 × 0.01 = 2.4

1 kPa equals 0.01 bar, so multiplying by 0.01 converts the value. The result describes the exact same quantity, only the measuring stick changes.

How to convert kilopascals to bars

bars = kilopascals × 0.01, multiply the kilopascal value by 0.01.

Example: 240 kPa = 2.4 bar.

To convert the other way: kilopascals = bars ÷ 0.01 — or use the dedicated bar to kPa converter .

Divide kilopascals by 100 for bar: 240 kPa is 2.4 bar, exactly. Both are metric units, kPa appears on tire placards, bar on pumps and gauges in Europe.

About the units

What is a kilopascal?

A kilopascal (kPa) is 1,000 pascals. Tire pressures in many countries and weather reports in Canada use kilopascals; standard atmosphere is 101.325 kPa.

What is a bar?

A bar is exactly 100,000 Pa, within 2% of one atmosphere. European tire pressures and scuba tank ratings are given in bar.
