How to Convert KPa to Bar

1 kPa = 0.01 bar exact

Bar = KPa × 0.01

Example: 980 kPa × 0.01 = 9.8 bar

Reverse Conversion

To convert bar back to kPa:

  • Remember, 1 bar equals 100 kPa.
  • To convert 9.8 bar to kPa, multiply 9.8 x 100, resulting in 980 kPa.

exact This conversion factor is exact by international definition.
