How to Convert Bar to Pascal

1 bar = 100000 pascals exact

Pascal = Bar × 100000

Example: 1720 bar × 100000 = 1.72 × 108 Pa

Reverse Conversion

To convert pascals back to bar:

  • Remember, 1 pascal equals 1 × 10-5 bar.
  • To convert 1.72 × 108 Pa to bar, multiply 1.72 × 108 x 1 × 10-5, resulting in 1720 bar.

exact This conversion factor is exact by international definition.

1720 bar is also equal to:

  • 172000 kPa
  • 24946 psi
About these units

Bar: Metric pressure unit equal to exactly 100,000 pascals.
