kilopascal to torr
Convert kilopascal (kPa) to torr (Torr). Use an editable pressure converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 kPa = 7.500616827 Torr
Conversion formula
One kilopascal equals 7.500616827 torr. Multiply your value in kilopascal by this factor to get torr. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 kilopascal:5 × 7.500616827 = 37.50308414 Torr

About these measurements
Pressure is force per unit of area.
The base reference used here is the pascal. One kilopascal is 1,000 base units; one torr is 133.3223684 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.
