Understanding Kilopascal and Bar
Kilopascal (kPa)
The kilopascal is a unit of pressure in the SI system.
• 1 kPa = 1,000 pascals
• 1 kPa = 0.145038 PSI
• Used in scientific measurements
• Common for tire pressure outside US
Bar (bar)
The bar is a unit of pressure in the Metric system.
• 1 bar = 100,000 pascals
• Standard for European tire pressure
• Used in meteorology (millibars)
• Common in compressed air systems
