Best Answer

In the metric system , Pressure is officially measured in Pascal or KiloPascal. The correct abbreviation for KiloPascal is kPa (a lower case k and upper case P) Multiply Pound per Square Inch (PSI) x 6.89 to convert it to kPa. Atmospheric pressure is 101.3 kPa or 14.696 PSI. Most pressure gauges at petrol stations have both PSI and KPa on the dial. Most car makers recommend tyre air pressures in kPa but sometimes they state both in the owners manual . Forget about Kg per cm squared. Do what the rest of the industrial world does, and use kPa.

How do you convert in to pounds per sq in?

The answer will depend on what it is that you wish to convert into PSI. You cannot. Inches are a linear measure, PSI (pounds per square inch) is a measure of pressure. The units are incompatible.


How many psi is equal to 1 meter?

This question cannot be answered because psi (pounds per square inch) is an imperial measure for pressure and 1 metre is a metric lineal measurement. To convert psi to metric you would probably use the metric pressure measurement of kpa (kilopascals). To convert pounds per square inch to kilopascals (PSI to KPA), multiply the PSI value by 6.894757293168361. To convert kilopascals to pounds per square inch (KPA to PSI), multiply the kpa value by .14503773773020923.

How can you convert 20 tons per square inch into mega pascal?

1000 pounds per square inch (ksi) = 6894.76 kPa, so 1 ton (2000 pounds) per square inch = 13789.52 kPa,and 20 tons per square inch = 275790.4 kPa = 275.7904 MPa[megaPascal].I used ConvertWorld to help with the conversions. See related link.20 tons per square inch = 275.790 megapascals20 tons/in2 = 40000 pounds/in2 (psi)Multiply psi by 0.006894759087 to convert from psi to MPa40000 psi * 0.006894759087 MPa/psi = 275.790 (Googled the conversion rate)
