Convert Pascals to Bar
Pa to bar · pressure conversion
What are pascals and bar?
The pascal is the SI unit of pressure, one newton per square meter. A bar is 100,000 pascals, roughly equal to atmospheric pressure at sea level. For reference: car tires run around 32 psi (220 kPa), and sea-level air pressure is about 101 kPa.
How to convert pascals to bar
1 Pa = 0.00001 bar. To convert, multiply the number of pascals by 0.00001. For example, 5 Pa = 0.00005 bar, and 20 Pa = 0.0002 bar. To go the other way, multiply bar by 100,000 (since 1 bar = 100,000 Pa).

FAQ
What is 1 Pa in bar?
1 Pa = 0.00001 bar. To convert any amount, multiply the number of pascals by 0.00001.
How do I convert bar back to pascals?
Go the other way: 1 bar = 100,000 Pa, so multiply bar by 100,000 to get pascals.
Is a pascal bigger than a bar?
No — 1 Pa is the smaller unit, equal to 0.00001 bar (it takes 100,000 Pa to make one bar).
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.
