About mmHg and Millibar
The millimeter of mercury is about 133.322 pascals, the height a pressure pushes a mercury column. Blood pressure worldwide is still reported in mmHg. 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 mmHg equals 1.333223684 Millibars (1 mmHg = 1.333223684 mbar). mmHg is used in blood pressure readings and in medical vacuum and ventilation. 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).
