Common pitfalls and look-alike units
One standard atmosphere is exactly 101325 Pa while 1 bar is 100000 Pa — about 1.3% apart, so do not mix them. Tire pressures are often quoted in psi or bar (1 bar ≈ 14.5 psi, 1 psi ≈ 6.895 kPa); millimeter of mercury uses the conventional value 1 mmHg = 133.322387415 Pa.
Frequently asked questions
How many bars are in a megapascal?
1 megapascal (MPa) equals 10 bar (bar).
How do I convert megapascals to bars?
Multiply the megapascal value by 10 to get bar — for example, 2 megapascals = 20 bar.
How do I convert bars back to megapascals?
1 bar equals 0.1 megapascal. Use the swap button or the reverse conversion page linked on this page.
