Kilopascals to bars

1 kilopascal in bars
1 kPa = 0.01 bar
bar = kPa × 0.01

To convert kilopascals to bars, multiply by 0.01. The table below gives the values people look up most often, and the converter works for any number.

2 kPa 0.02
3 kPa 0.03
4 kPa 0.04
5 kPa 0.05
10 kPa 0.1
15 kPa 0.15

How the conversion works

The relationship is bar = kPa × 0.01. Both units measure pressure, so the conversion is a fixed factor that never changes.

Common questions

How many bars are in one kilopascal?
One kilopascal equals 0.01 bars. bar = kPa × 0.01.
How do you convert kilopascals to bars?
Use bar = kPa × 0.01. So 10 kPa is 0.1 bar.
How many kilopascals are in one bar?
One bar equals 100 kilopascals, which is the reverse of the conversion above.
