Convert hectopascals to inhg by entering a value below.

1 hPa (hectopascals) = 0.0295299802 inHg (inhg)

How to Convert Hectopascals to inHg

The hectopascal and inch of mercury are both units of pressure. 1 inch of mercury equals 33.86389 hectopascals. This means to convert hectopascals to inhg, you divide by 33.86389.

Formula

inhg = hectopascals ÷ 33.86389

Step-by-Step Example

Convert 5 hPa to inhg:

1
Convert 5 hPa to inhg

We need to convert hectopascals to inhg

2
Apply the formula

Since 1 inHg = 33.86389 hPa, divide by 33.86389

5 ÷ 33.86389 = 0.1476499008

Answer

5 hPa = 0.1476499008 inHg

About These Units

Hectopascal (hPa)

A hectopascal (hPa) equals 100 Pascals and is identical to one millibar. Hectopascals are the standard unit for atmospheric pressure in meteorology and aviation worldwide. Standard sea level pressure is 1013.25 hPa. Weather maps display pressure in hPa.

Inch of Mercury (inHg)

Inches of mercury (inHg) measure atmospheric pressure in US aviation and weather reports. Standard sea level pressure is 29.92 inHg. Altimeter settings use inHg. One inHg equals 25.4 mmHg or approximately 33.86 millibars.
