Psi to Kilopascals (psi to kPa)

Formula

1 psi = 6.89476 kPa

kilopascals = psi × 6.894757293 — reverse: psi = kilopascals × 0.1450377377

The factor is derived from the SI definitions of both units (base unit: Pa) as listed in NIST SP 811; results on this page are shown to 6 significant figures, the API returns up to 12.

Worked examples

• 5 psi = 34.4738 kPa
• 12.5 psi = 86.1845 kPa
• 100 psi = 689.476 kPa
