The Conversion Formula
To convert psi to pascals, multiply the value by the conversion factor: 1 psi = 6894.76 Pa. For a worked example, suppose you need to convert 25 psi to pascals: 25 × 6894.76 = 172369 Pa. To convert in the opposite direction, divide by 6894.76, or equivalently multiply by 0.000145038.
About psi
PSI stands for 'Pounds per Square Inch'. It is the standard unit for pressure in the United States. It measures how many pounds of force are pressing on every square inch of surface. It is the unit every American driver looks for when filling their tires. psi are commonly used in Tire pressure (US), Blood pressure (rarely), Scuba tanks (US), and Industrial pumps, Paintball tanks.
A standard car tire is inflated to 30-35 psi.
About pascals
The pascal (Pa) is the SI unit of pressure, named after French polymath Blaise Pascal. One pascal is one Newton of force per square meter. It is a very small unit—atmospheric pressure is over 100,000 pascals! Because it's so small, meteorologists and engineers often prefer kilopascals (kPa) or hectopascals (hPa). pascals are commonly used in Scientific research, Acoustics (Sound pressure), Ventilation systems (very low pressure), and Clean room standards, Geophysics.
The pressure of a dollar bill on a table is roughly 1 Pascal.
When Would You Convert psi to pascals?
Converting between psi and pascals is one of the most common pressure conversions. You might need this conversion when working with international specifications, following instructions written for a different measurement system, or comparing values across different standards. Having the conversion factor (1 psi = 6894.76 Pa) memorized or bookmarked can save time in professional and everyday contexts alike.
