Pascals to Kilopascals (Pa to kPa) Converter

1 pascal (Pa) = 0.001 kilopascals (kPa). To convert pascals to kilopascals, multiply by 0.001: 25 Pa × 0.001 = 0.025 kPa.

1 Pa = 0.001 kPa
Convert the other way: Kilopascals to Pascals

Quick facts

How to convert pascals to kilopascals

  1. Take the value in pascals.
  2. Multiply it by 0.001 (the number of kilopascals in one pascal).
  3. Round the result to the precision you need.
kPa = Pa × 0.001

Worked example: 25 Pa × 0.001 = 0.025 kPa.

To convert kilopascals back to pascals, multiply by 1,000, or divide by 0.001.

What is a pascal?

The SI derived unit of pressure, equal to one newton per square meter. Used in scientific and engineering pressure calculations.

What is a kilopascal?

Equal to 1,000 pascals. Used for tire pressure and weather pressure outside the US.

Frequently asked questions

How many kilopascals are in a pascal?

There are 0.001 kilopascals in 1 pascal (1 Pa = 0.001 kPa).

How many pascals are in a kilopascal?

There are 1,000 pascals in 1 kilopascal (1 kPa = 1000 Pa).

How do I convert pascals to kilopascals?

Multiply the number of pascals by 0.001. For example, 10 Pa × 0.001 = 0.01 kPa. To convert back, multiply by 1,000.

What is 10 Pa in kilopascals?

10 Pa = 0.01 kPa.

What is 100 Pa in kilopascals?

100 Pa = 0.1 kPa.

Is the conversion exact?

Yes. The factor comes from the official definitions of both units (NIST SP 811 (2008), Appendix B). Results are shown to up to 10 decimal places; round them to suit your purpose.
