torr to standard atmosphere
Convert torr (Torr) to standard atmosphere (atm). Use an editable pressure converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 Torr = 0.001315789474 atm
Conversion formula
One torr equals 0.001315789474 standard atmosphere. Multiply your value in torr by this factor to get standard atmosphere. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 torr:5 × 0.001315789474 = 0.006578947368 atm

About these measurements
Pressure is force per unit of area.
The base reference used here is the pascal. One torr is 133.3223684 base units; one standard atmosphere is 101,325 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.
Common questions
