1 megapascal = 1,000 kilopascals (shown to 6 significant figures — the converter itself computes at full precision). The reverse factor is 1 kilopascal = 0.001 megapascals.
1 MPa = 1,000 kPa; 10 MPa = 10,000 kPa; 100 MPa = 100,000 kPa. Use the full conversion table below for more reference values.
No. PSI usually means gauge pressure (psig) — the difference between the measured pressure and the surrounding atmosphere, which is why a tire reads 0 psi when flat. Absolute pressure (psia) includes atmospheric pressure (~14.7 psi at sea level). This converter converts between pressure magnitudes; it does not add or remove the atmospheric baseline.
