How to Convert KPa to Bar

1 kPa = 0.01 bar exact

Bar = KPa × 0.01

Example: 59 kPa × 0.01 = 0.59 bar

Reverse Conversion

To convert bar back to kPa:

  • Remember, 1 bar equals 100 kPa.
  • To convert 0.59 bar to kPa, multiply 0.59 x 100, resulting in 59 kPa.

exact This conversion factor is exact by international definition.

59 kPa is also equal to:

  • 59000 pascal
  • 8.5572 psi
