How to Convert Pascal to Bar

1 pascal = 1 × 10-5 bar exact

Bar = Pascal × 1 × 10-5

Example: 12979.6 Pa × 1 × 10-5 = 0.1298 bar

Reverse Conversion

To convert bar back to pascals:

  • Remember, 1 bar equals 100000 pascals.
  • To convert 0.1298 bar to Pa, multiply 0.1298 x 100000, resulting in 12980 Pa.

exact This conversion factor is exact by international definition.

12979.6 Pa is also equal to:

  • 12.98 kPa
  • 1.8825 psi
About these units

Pascal: SI derived unit of pressure equal to one newton per square meter (N/m²).
