About PSI and Bar
The pound per square inch is about 6,894.757 pascals. US tire pressures, water systems, and industrial equipment are rated in psi. The bar is exactly 100,000 pascals, close to one atmosphere. European tire pressures, scuba tanks, and espresso machines are rated in bar. One PSI equals 0.06894757293 Bars (1 psi = 0.06894757293 bar). PSI is used in US tire pressure and in US plumbing and well systems. Bar is used in European tire pressures.
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).
