Key units & conversion basis
Pressure units are converted through pascals (Pa). Each field has its own standard — weather services (hPa), tire pressure (psi, bar), and medicine (mmHg).
| Unit | Symbol | In Pa | Common use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pascal | Pa | 1 Pa | SI base |
| Kilopascal | kPa | 1,000 Pa | engineering, tires |
| Bar | bar | 100,000 Pa | pneumatic systems |
| Atmosphere | atm | 101,325 Pa | reference |
| PSI | psi | 6,894.76 Pa | US tires, gauges |
| mmHg | mmHg | 133.32 Pa | blood pressure, weather |
| inHg | inHg | 3,386.39 Pa | US weather |
🧮 How the conversion is calculated
Example: 35 psi tire pressure to kPa → 35 × 6,894.76 = 241,317 Pa → ÷ 1,000 = 241.3 kPa (≈2.4 bar).
🎯 When to use this
- Convert tire pressure (psi) to bar
- Convert atmospheric pressure in weather data
- Check industrial equipment pressure specs (atm, kPa)
- Match foreign tire-pressure specs (psi) to bar or kPa

Frequently Asked Questions
- How many bar is 1 atm?
- 1 atm is approximately 1.01325 bar.
- Where is psi commonly used?
- Tire pressure and US industrial standards.
- What is standard atmospheric pressure in kPa?
- 1 atm = 101.325 kPa — the same as 1,013 hPa in weather reports (1 hPa = 100 Pa).
- How many kPa is 120 mmHg?
- About 16 kPa (120 × 133.32 = 15,998 Pa). Blood pressure monitors conventionally use mmHg.
