bar to inch of water at 4°C
Convert bar (bar) to inch of water at 4°C (inH₂O). Use an editable pressure converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 bar = 401.463076 inH₂O
Conversion formula
One bar equals 401.463076 inch of water at 4°C. Multiply your value in bar by this factor to get inch of water at 4°C. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.

About these measurements
Pressure is force per unit of area.
The base reference used here is the pascal. One bar is 100,000 base units; one inch of water at 4°C is 249.08891 base units.
Important distinctions
Gauge and absolute pressures must not be mixed. This converts units without changing the reference pressure.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
