Bars to Pascals converter

To convert bars to pascals, enter the value in the first field. The result in pascals is calculated automatically using the exact conversion factor.

1 bar = 100000 Pa
1 Pa = 0.00001 bar

Formula: Pa = bar × 100000
bar = Pa × 0.00001

Definitions: 1 bar = 100000 Pa

The bar equals exactly 100,000 pascals, which is very close to atmospheric pressure at sea level. It is used for tire and gas pressure in Europe, for scuba tanks (water adds about one bar per 10 meters of depth), and in hydraulics and boilers.

The pascal (Pa) is the SI unit of pressure, one newton per square meter. It is a very small unit, so everyday pressures are usually given in kilopascals or hectopascals, but the pascal is the base of physics, acoustics and engineering formulas.
