About inHg and Kilopascal

The inch of mercury is about 3,386.39 pascals. US weather reports and aviation altimeter settings quote barometric pressure in inches of mercury. The kilopascal is 1,000 pascals. Tire pressures in metric countries, weather systems, and engineering specs commonly use kilopascals. One inHg equals 3.38638864 Kilopascals (1 inHg = 3.38638864 kPa). inHg is used in US barometric weather reports and in aviation altimeter settings. Kilopascal is used in tire pressure in metric countries.

Precision and Rounding:Several pressure factors are exact by definition (1 atm = 101,325 Pa; 1 bar = 100,000 Pa) while others, like psi and mmHg, are derived and carry long decimals. Tire and weather readings tolerate whole-number rounding; calibration, medicine, and process engineering need the full factor before rounding.

Use the pressure conversion guide to compare mmHg, mbar, inHg, kPa, Pa, and torr across medical, weather, aviation, vacuum, and engineering work.

Conversion factors per NIST Special Publication 811 and the BIPM SI Brochure (9th edition) (reference).
