Overview
About the Psi to Kpa Converter
Turn Pound per square inch into Kilopascal with an exact factor. Type a value and get kPa, every other pressure unit, and the working — all locally, with nothing uploaded.
Pound per square inch and Kilopascal describe the same quantity on two different scales, and converting between them is a single arithmetic step once you know the exact factor. This page does that step in your browser: type a value in psi and the kPa result appears immediately, alongside the same figure in every other pressure unit.
The conversion
One psi is exactly 6.8948 kPa:
kPa = psi × 6.8948
psi = kPa × 0.145038Multiply to go one way, divide (or multiply by the inverse) to come back. The factor is a defined constant, not a measurement, so it never needs rounding.
Worked example
10 psi = 68.9476 kPa. Enter 10 in the box above and you will see exactly that, plus the value carried across the rest of the pressure scale so you can sanity-check it against a unit you already recognise.
About these units
Pressure conversions reduce to the pascal. Standard atmospheric pressure is defined as exactly 101.325 kilopascals, and the pound per square inch is exactly 6,894.757293168 pascals, so both resolve cleanly.
Converting the other way
Press Swap to turn this into a kPa-to-psi converter in place. The inverse factor, 1 kPa = 0.145038 psi, is shown in the arithmetic panel so you can check the reverse calculation independently.
Step by step
How to use the Psi to Kpa Converter
Enter the value in psi (pound per square inch) that you want to convert.
Read the answer in kPa, which updates the moment you type.
Scan the full pressure table to see the same value in every other unit at once.
Copy the result, or press Swap to convert back the other way without re-entering anything.
Why use it
Benefits and common use cases
What this tool is good for, and what it deliberately does not try to do.
Exact, defined factors
Every pressure conversion here uses the internationally defined relationship between psi and kPa, so the answer is as precise as the standard that fixes it rather than an approximation.
The whole category at once
Alongside the kPa answer you get the same value expressed in every pressure unit, so you can find the one you actually need without converting twice.
Private by construction
The arithmetic runs in your browser's own JavaScript. The numbers you enter are never sent to a server — close the tab and they are gone.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Short, honest answers about quality, limits and privacy.
How many kilopascal are in one pound per square inch?
One psi equals 6.8948 kPa. Multiply any psi value by 6.8948 to get kPa — for example, 10 psi = 68.9476 kPa.
What is the formula to convert psi to kPa?
kPa = psi × 6.8948. The page does this multiplication for you and also lists the inverse, 1 kPa = 0.145038 psi.
Is this pressure converter accurate?
Yes. It uses the exact defined factor for psi and kPa and full double-precision arithmetic. The only rounding is in how many decimals are shown, which you control with the precision menu.
Are my numbers uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser, so nothing you type leaves your device. There is no account, no logging and no network request of any kind.
