How to Convert Kilopascals to Torr
The kilopascal and torr are both units of pressure. 1 kilopascal equals 7.500616827 torr. This means to convert kilopascals to torr, you multiply by 7.500616827.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 kPa to torr:
We need to convert kilopascals to torr
Since 1 kPa = 7.500616827 Torr, multiply by 7.500616827
5 × 7.500616827 = 37.503084135
5 kPa = 37.503084135 Torr

About These Units
Kilopascal (kPa)
A kilopascal (kPa) equals 1,000 Pascals or approximately 0.145 PSI. Kilopascals measure tire pressure in metric countries (typically 200-250 kPa for cars), blood pressure, and industrial processes. Standard atmospheric pressure is 101.325 kPa.
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.
