How to Convert Hectopascals to Torr
The hectopascal and torr are both units of pressure. 1 torr equals 1.3332236842 hectopascals. This means to convert hectopascals to torr, you divide by 1.3332236842.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 hPa to torr:
We need to convert hectopascals to torr
Since 1 Torr = 1.3332236842 hPa, divide by 1.3332236842
5 ÷ 1.3332236842 = 3.7503084135
5 hPa = 3.7503084135 Torr

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.
Torr (Torr)
A torr equals approximately 1 mmHg or 1/760 of an atmosphere. Torr measures vacuum pressure in scientific and industrial applications. Named after Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli, inventor of the barometer. High vacuum is below 10⁻³ torr.
