🎈 Pressure Converter
Convert between PSI, bar, pascal, atmospheres and mmHg. Tire pressures, weather systems and medical readings all use different pressure units — 1 bar = 14.5038 psi.
1 Pa = 0.001 kPa
1 pascals = 0.001 kilopascals
1 × 0.001 = 0.001
1 Pa equals 0.001 kPa, so multiplying by 0.001 converts the value. The result describes the exact same quantity — only the measuring stick changes.

All pressure units
| Unit | Symbol | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| Pascal | Pa | The pascal (Pa) is the SI unit of pressure — one newton per square meter. It is small in everyday terms: atmospheric pressure is about 101,325 Pa. |
| Kilopascal | kPa | 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. |
| Megapascal | MPa | A megapascal (MPa) is one million pascals, used for material strength (concrete, steel) and hydraulic systems. |
| Bar | bar | A bar is exactly 100,000 Pa — within 2% of one atmosphere. European tire pressures and scuba tank ratings are given in bar. |
| Pound per square inch | psi | PSI (pound-force per square inch) is the US customary pressure unit, about 6,894.76 Pa. US tire pressures (typically 30–35 psi) and plumbing systems use psi. |
| Atmosphere | atm | A standard atmosphere (atm) is exactly 101,325 Pa — the average sea-level air pressure. Diving depth pressure is often expressed in atmospheres. |
| Torr | Torr | A torr is 1/760 of a standard atmosphere (about 133.322 Pa), essentially equal to one millimeter of mercury. Vacuum systems are specified in torr. |
| Millimeter of mercury | mmHg | A millimeter of mercury (mmHg) is 133.322 Pa. Blood pressure worldwide is measured in mmHg — a healthy reading is around 120/80 mmHg. |
| Inch of mercury | inHg | An inch of mercury (inHg) is 3,386.39 Pa. US weather barometric pressure (~29.92 inHg standard) and aviation altimeter settings use inches of mercury. |
