Pressure converter
Convert pressures between psi, bar, kPa, atm and mmHg. 1 bar is 100 kPa or about 14.504 psi, and 1 atm is 101.325 kPa.
Result
1 psi = 0.0689476 bar
1 psi
0.06895 bar
Both bars show the same amount: 1 psi on top, 0.06895 bar below.

How it works
Pressures are converted through the pascal (1 N/m²). Tire pressures use psi, bar or kPa; weather maps use hectopascals (equal to millibars); blood pressure uses millimeters of mercury.

Frequently asked questions
What is normal car tire pressure in bar?
Most passenger cars use 30–35 psi, which is about 2.1–2.4 bar. Always follow the value on your door sticker.
Is a millibar the same as a hectopascal?
Yes. 1 mbar = 1 hPa = 100 Pa, which is why weather reports use either.
How many bars are in 1 pound per square inch?
1 pound per square inch = 0.0689476 bars. The other way round, 1 bar = 14.5038 pounds per square inch.
How many pounds per square inch are in 1 bar?
1 bar = 14.5038 pounds per square inch. The other way round, 1 pound per square inch = 0.0689476 bars.
