About inHg and Millibar
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 millibar is one thousandth of a bar, identical to the hectopascal. Meteorology has used millibars for surface pressure maps and storm intensity for a century. One inHg equals 33.8638864 Millibars (1 inHg = 33.8638864 mbar). inHg is used in US barometric weather reports and in aviation altimeter settings. Millibar is used in weather maps and forecasts.
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).
