Pressure Converter
Understanding Pressure Conversion
Pressure measures force per unit area. The metric system uses pascals (Pa) and bar, while US Customary uses PSI (pounds per square inch). ATM measures atmospheric pressure.
Key Conversions
- 1 bar = 100 kPa
- 1 PSI = 6.895 kPa
- 1 ATM = 101.325 kPa
💡 Tips
- Standard atmospheric pressure is 1 ATM
- Car tires are typically inflated to 30-35 PSI
- 1 bar is approximately atmospheric pressure at sea level
