Convert Torr to Kilopascal
Enter the number of torr that you want to convert to kilopascals.
How to Convert Torr to Kilopascals
The torr and kilopascal are both units of pressure. 1 kilopascal equals 7.500616827 torr. This means to convert torr to kilopascals, you divide by 7.500616827.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 Torr to kilopascals:
We need to convert torr to kilopascals
Since 1 kPa = 7.500616827 Torr, divide by 7.500616827
5 ÷ 7.500616827 = 0.6666118421
5 Torr = 0.6666118421 kPa

About These Units
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.
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.
