FORMULA & EXAMPLES

How to convert Kilopascals to bar

bar = kPa ÷ 100

Divide the kPa reading by 100.

Worked examples

1 kPa ≈ 0.01 bar

1 ÷ 100 ≈ 0.01

100 kPa ≈ 1 bar

100 ÷ 100 ≈ 1

Frequently asked questions

Does kPa to bar change gauge pressure into absolute pressure?

No. Unit conversion preserves the original pressure reference. Converting a gauge reading to absolute pressure additionally requires the applicable atmospheric pressure.
