About these units
Bars (bar): One bar is exactly 100,000 pascals, close to atmospheric pressure at sea level. Tyre and gauge pressures in Europe and Asia are often in bar.
kg/cm² (kgf/cm²): A kilogram-force per square centimetre (kgf/cm², often written kg/cm²) is 98,066.5 Pa. Many pressure gauges in Asia and the Middle East use it.
Frequently asked questions
How many kg/cm² are in 1 bar?
1 bar equals 1.019716213 kg/cm² (kgf/cm²).
How do I convert bar to kgf/cm²?
Multiply the value in bars by 1.019716213. For example, 5 bar × 1.019716213 = 5.098581065 kgf/cm².
How do I convert kg/cm² back to bars?
Multiply by 0.980665 (or divide by 1.019716213). 1 kgf/cm² = 0.980665 bar.
What is a bar?
One bar is exactly 100,000 pascals, close to atmospheric pressure at sea level. Tyre and gauge pressures in Europe and Asia are often in bar.
