# Atmospheres to Bar (atm to bar)

> Convert atmospheres to bar: 1 atm = 1.01325 bar. Exact conversion factor, formula, 22-row table and worked examples, with JSON API and MCP access.

- Page id: `atm-to-bar` · Quantity: Pressure (`pressure`, base unit Pa) · Tool: `convert_units`
- Canonical page: https://tttkmbb.com/conversion/atm-to-bar · This document: https://tttkmbb.com/conversion/atm-to-bar.md · JSON: https://tttkmbb.com/conversion/atm-to-bar.json (add `?value=` for a result)

## Formula

- `1 atm = 1.01325 bar`
- `bar = atmospheres × 1.01325`
- Reverse: `atmospheres = bar × 0.9869232667`

The factor follows from the SI definitions of both units (NIST SP 811); values below are rounded to 6 significant figures, the API returns up to 12.

## Worked examples

- 5 atm = 5.06625 bar
- 12.5 atm = 12.6656 bar
- 100 atm = 101.325 bar

## FAQ

**How many bar are in one atmosphere?**

1 atm = 1.01325 bar. The factor comes from the SI definitions of both units (NIST SP 811 / BIPM), so it is exact or correct to at least 10 significant figures.

**What is the formula to convert atmospheres to bar?**

Multiply the value in atmospheres by 1.01325: bar = atmospheres × 1.01325. For example, 5 atm = 5.06625 bar.

**How do I convert bar back to atmospheres?**

Multiply by the inverse factor 0.9869232667 (atmospheres = bar × 0.9869232667), or use the bar-to-atmospheres page.
