    FAQ

    How many kgf/cm² is 1 MPa?

    1 MPa ≈ 10.1972 kgf/cm². The exact relation goes the other way: 1 kgf/cm² = 0.0980665 MPa, so kgf/cm² = MPa ÷ 0.0980665.

    What is 1 kgf/cm² equal to?

    1 kgf/cm² = 0.0980665 MPa exactly (98,066.5 Pa), which is ≈ 0.9807 bar. It is the technical atmosphere: one kilogram-force, 9.80665 N, on one square centimeter.

    Where does the factor 0.0980665 come from?

    The kilogram-force is exactly 9.80665 N (standard gravity), and a square centimeter is 0.0001 m², so 1 kgf/cm² = 98,066.5 Pa = 0.0980665 MPa. Both numbers are exact, and so is the factor.

    Is kgf/cm² the same as an atmosphere?

    It is the technical atmosphere (at), exactly 98,066.5 Pa. The standard atmosphere (atm) is 101,325 Pa, about 3% more. Every answer on this page shows bar, psi and atm too.
