Standard atmospheric pressure is 1 atm = 101,325 Pa = 1.01325 bar = 14.696 psi = 760 mmHg. Pressure is force per unit area; all these units measure the same thing in different scales.

Use this free pressure converter to switch between pascals, kPa, bar, atm, psi, mmHg, inHg and millibars. Enter a value in any unit and all the others update instantly.

What this pressure converter does

pressure converter changes a pressure between common units. They all measure force per unit area; the calculator converts through pascals (Pa), the SI unit, so every result is consistent.

Common pressure conversions

Unit In pascals (Pa)
1 atm 101,325
1 bar 100,000
1 psi 6,894.76
1 kPa 1,000
1 mmHg (torr) 133.322
1 inHg 3,386.39

So 1 atm = 14.696 psi = 1.01325 bar = 760 mmHg, and a tyre at 32 psi is about 2.21 bar.

Where each unit is used

psi is common for tyres and US engineering; bar and kPa in much of the world; atm in chemistry; mmHg and inHg in weather and blood pressure; millibars (hPa) in meteorology.

How to use the pressure converter

  1. Enter a pressure value.
  2. Choose the unit you’re starting from.
  3. Read every other unit instantly.

Pressure Converter FAQ

How do I convert psi to bar?

Multiply psi by 0.0689 (since 1 psi = 6894.76 Pa and 1 bar = 100,000 Pa). So 32 psi is about 2.21 bar.

How do I convert bar to psi?

Multiply bar by 14.5038. So 1 bar is about 14.5 psi and 2 bar is about 29 psi.

What is 1 atm in psi and bar?

Standard atmospheric pressure is 1 atm = 14.696 psi = 1.01325 bar = 101,325 Pa = 760 mmHg.

How do I convert kPa to psi?

Multiply kPa by 0.145. So 100 kPa is about 14.5 psi.

What's the difference between mbar and hPa?

None — they're identical. 1 millibar equals 1 hectopascal (100 Pa), which is why weather reports use them interchangeably.

Is the pressure converter free?

Yes, this pressure converter is completely free, needs no sign-up, and gives instant results in your browser.
