What is a Pascal?

The Pascal (Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure. It is defined as one newton per square meter. It is named after the French mathematician Blaise Pascal.

What is a Kilopascal?

The Kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure equal to 1,000 pascals. It is commonly used in meteorology and tire pressure measurements.

How to Convert Pascal to Kilopascal

To convert Pascal to Kilopascal, divide the Pascal value by 1000.

kPa = Pa ÷ 1000

Manual Calculation Steps
