Convert Bar to Pascals
bar to Pa · pressure conversion
What are bar and pascals?
A bar is 100,000 pascals, roughly equal to atmospheric pressure at sea level. The pascal is the SI unit of pressure, one newton per square meter. For reference: car tires run around 32 psi (220 kPa), and sea-level air pressure is about 101 kPa.
How to convert bar to pascals
1 bar = 100,000 Pa. To convert, multiply the number of bar by 100,000. For example, 5 bar = 500,000 Pa, and 20 bar = 2,000,000 Pa. To go the other way, multiply pascals by 0.00001 (since 1 Pa = 0.00001 bar).

FAQ
What is 1 bar in Pa?
1 bar = 100,000 Pa. To convert any amount, multiply the number of bar by 100,000.
How do I convert pascals back to bar?
Go the other way: 1 Pa = 0.00001 bar, so multiply pascals by 0.00001 to get bar.
Is a bar bigger than a pascal?
Yes — 1 bar is the larger unit, equal to 100,000 Pa.
Are these pressure conversions exact?
They use the standard internationally-defined conversion factors. Results are rounded to six significant figures for readability, which is accurate enough for everyday and most technical use.
