Pressure Converter
Pressure is the force pushing on a surface per unit area (P = F/A). It’s measured as force ÷ area, like Pa (N/m²) or psi.

How to Convert Pressure Units
Pressure conversions use a simple conversion factor, so you only need basic multiplication or division:
S × C = E
- S = starting value
- C = conversion factor
- E = converted result
Convert any unit to Pascals (Pa)
Multiply your value by the unit’s Pa factor.
Example (bar → Pa):
5 bar × 100,000 (Pa per bar) = 500,000 Pa
Convert Pascals (Pa) to another unit.
Divide by that unit’s Pa factor (or multiply by its reciprocal).
Example (Pa → bar):
500,000 Pa ÷ 100,000 (Pa per bar) = 5 bar
Convert between any two pressure units (A → B)
Method 1 (via Pa):
- Convert A to Pa (multiply)
- Convert Pa to B (divide)
Method 2 (one-step factor):
A → B factor = (Pa factor of A) ÷ (Pa factor of B)
Example (bar → psi):
100,000 ÷ 6,894.757 = 14.503774
So: bar × 14.503774 = psi
