Please provide values below to convert kilopascal [kPa] to pound-force per square inch [psi], or change ↔.
kilopascal [kPa]
Definition: A derived unit of pressure, equal to one thousand pascals (1 kPa = 1000 Pa).
Historyandorigin: The kilopascal is commonly used for everyday pressure measurements, especially in meteorology and engineering.
CurrentUse: Used for measuring atmospheric pressure, tire pressure, and other common pressure-related applications.
funfact: A standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is approximately 101.325 kPa!
pound-force per square inch [psi]
Definition: A unit of pressure commonly used in the United States, equal to the pressure produced by a one-pound force applied to an area of one square inch.
Historyandorigin: The pound-force per square inch has been a traditional unit of pressure in the imperial system for centuries.
CurrentUse: Widely used in the U.S. for tire pressure, hydraulic systems, and HVAC systems.
funfact: Many car tire pressures are specified in psi, making it a commonly recognized unit for everyday use!
